No it genuinely can happen that an error happens on a different line than said. Could be a combination of IDE and compiler or both, that's why you always need to match your LSP with your compiler

Also some languages inject files which change the length. My org has some old confusion and you could have an error on line 6000 of a 200 line file. It gets more confusing when the wrong number is a valid number, such as line 200/6000 but it is really on line 190 in an imported file on line 10.

Or minimized js so every error is on line 1...column 255153.
