SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
A function call’s parentheses are unbalanced — often an unescaped quote or a missing comma/plus.
SyntaxError: Identifier 'x' has already been declared
The same let/const/class name was declared twice in the same scope.
SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token

The parser found a name where it expected punctuation — usually a missing comma, operator or quote.

The server couldn’t parse the request body as JSON, so it rejected the request before looking at any field.
