Now you are demonstrating my point about being treated like a

If you stop acting like a beginner, you probably won't be treated like
one. Stop pretending not to understand things that have been explained
to you many times.

In a syntax where newlines may be injecting semicolons, such a subtle
distinction is not strong enough. As I originally said, it's fragile.
C does not have a syntax where "newlines may be injecting semicolons".
How is your point relevant?
Those suggesting that semicolons are unimportant details of syntax in
C are wrong. They can make a significant difference and contribute to
errors:

for (i=0; i<n; ++i);
printf("%d\n", i);
Nobody has suggested that "semicolons are unimportant details of syntax
in C".
