Why is the ", at line 7 column 89 NOT the closing of the string, beginning at column 10

Well, I don't know how the Vala compiler works, but in the string template $(....) is an expression and so the " at line 7 column 89, which appears in that expression (before the bracket after the $-sign is closed) cannot be the closing of the string.
From this Vala tutorial

Strings prefixed with '@' are string templates. They can evaluate embedded variables and expressions prefixed with '$':

int a = 6, b = 7;
string s = @"$a * $b = $(a * b)";  // => "6 * 7 = 42"
