Similar issue: https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=125247
(unclosed multiline comments). This time it is about other unclosed things.

Code:
say $<word;
# some code here

Error:
Unable to parse quote-words subscript; couldn't find right angle quote
at ./test.pl:25
------> <BOL>⏏<EOL>
    expecting any of:
        argument list
        term

Similar problem with:
say <word;
say <<word;
say (word;
say [word;
... more?

1) "expecting any of" section does not help that much. There is no need to
add terms or argument lists to the end of your file to fix the problem, the
only thing that is actually expected is a closing bracket.
2) The end of file does not count as a helpful line number, especially if
the file is long. It would be great to have the same "(corresponding < was
at line 1)"-like message as with multiline comments
