For instance, for Java, it makes a difference: If the normal Java conventions are not followed (e.g., for variable names), the syntax highlighting will not be correct. Or in other words, the current syntax highlighter in some cases (or all cases?) expects the platform conventions to be followed | |

@zcoop98 Your addition here is based on an inaccurate assumption that it's a bug and introduces a red herring into the discussion. The version of highlight.js doesn't matter for this. The issue is that Stack Exchange doesn't include PowerShell syntax in the languages available in the page. Thus, all attempts to try to use PowerShell syntax highlighting on Stack Exchange won't pull in an actual highlighting definition. So, specifying powershell syntax highlighting does nothing (it might be useful, eventually, when at some point in the future SE includes the PowerShell syntax definition).

Note that the PS highlighting is fixed in the current HL.js version, tie answer complaint back to question
