Syntax highlighting breaks when adding function return type (MPLS/Pylance)

See original GitHub issue

VSCode Version: 1.49.3
OS Version:10.0.0.19042

Steps to Reproduce:

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No when I write a function in python, and put arrow to mark that the function returns value (the ->), the arrow is destroying the syntax highlight and the linter (the part that checks if the keywords have been typed correctly)
