Spec says:
3.4 Identifiers and Keywords

Any sequence of characters that is enclosed in double-backtick marks ( ), excluding newlines,
tabs, and double-backtick pairs themselves, is treated as an identifier. Note that when an identifier is
used for the name of a types, union type case, module, or namespace, the following characters are
not allowed even inside double-backtick marks:
‘.', '+', '$', '&', '[', ']', '/', '\', '*', '"', '`'
All input files are currently assumed to be encoded as UTF-8. See the C# specification for a list of the
Unicode characters that are accepted for the Unicode character classes \Lu, \Li, \Lt, \Lm, \Lo, \Nl,
\Pc, \Mn, \Mc, and \Cf.

This is not an issue, I misinterpreted what the parser is doing. We only need to handle ' correctly, which we do in #4969
