The real reason was a boring one and seemingly unrelated to that file. I just ran out of disk space. Still though, that’s not exactly a helpful error is it

    Lists A list is a sequence of one or more pipelines separated by one of the operators ;, &, &&, or ||, and optionally terminated by one of ;, &, or <newline>.

       Of these list operators, && and || have equal precedence, followed by ; and &, which have equal precedence.
    
       A sequence of one or more newlines may appear in a list instead of a semicolon to delimit commands.
    
       ....
    
       AND and OR lists are sequences of one or more pipelines separated by the && and || control operators, respectively.  AND and OR lists are executed with left associativity.  An AND list has the form
    
              command1 && command2
    
       **command2 is executed if, and only if, command1 returns an exit status of zero (success).**
    

    So, command 1 returns success, but command 2 fails. The FAILED comment at the beginning of the error message is the message to parse, one part succeeded, the other failed.

    Not using && and running your command by line will show where the error is.
