Note that if a file is being parsed and not a string the behaviour is this:
╰─ cat -e t.py
x = 1 | 2 |    $
╰─ ./python.exe t.py
  File "/Users/lysnikolaou/repos/cpython/t.py", line 1
    x = 1 | 2 |
                  ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
╰─ ./python.exe -X oldparser t.py
  File "/Users/lysnikolaou/repos/cpython/t.py", line 1
    x = 1 | 2 |
                  ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Would we want to also change this? If not, then I guess that we should as 
closely as possible match this behaviour with strings as well, which means not 
clipping.
