This is a problem with the upstream grammar, not linguist. Please open an issue in the grammar repo.

That would be https://github.com/PowerShell/EditorSyntax, correct? I'll make an issue there if it doesn't exist already. Edit:

• Variables that are built-in constants are not highlighted, like $Error and $PSVersionTable PowerShell/EditorSyntax#218

Yup, that’s grammar we use. Interesting that the VSCode grammar suffers from the same issue.
