Summary:
Hi! I've got a playground with a syntax error. I see an error:
error: 23432n4kj23nknd.playground:82:5: error: expected declaration
ksdfjsdnfjsnjf
^
23432n4kj23nknd.playground:79:13: note: in declaration of 'AnyGreeble'
final class AnyGreeble<Flonk>: Greeble {

Those line numbers (82, 79) are actually six lines displaced from the actual error.
Playground and screenshot attached.
Thanks!

From a cow-orker: i easily recreated in in a new playground (Xcode 9 GM). i reduced the number of lines in my playground to 5, and it reported the error on the correct line as best i can tell, if the error is ~below~ greater than line 6 it will be reported as line number - 6
