I assumed that people didn't normally get any erroring-out here because
these functions are normally called from font-locking, which catches
most errors.  When electric-pair-mode is used, the syntax functions are
called via a different code path that doesn't catch errors, so I thought
it'd make most sense to not call `error' from the code at all.

But yes, the parsing won't be correct.
