Comment (by mjdewitt):

 I can see at the heart of this issue is semantics.

 I'm not going to push this issue anymore as I don't think it's productive
 and I know the work-around for codemirror failures.

 I will leave you with this:

 Given that the code-snippets plugin only works when the box is checked,
 making syntax_highlighting false, and therefore disabled, codemirror is
 fully featured and works great.

 According to the docs: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/users-
 your-profile-screen/

 "Syntax Highlighting – Checking this box Disable[s] syntax highlighting
 when editing code. "

 I don't believe that the code agrees with this statement.

 Thanks again for your consideration of this issue.

 Mike
