I have a guess as to why this happens. The get/1 function is defined in
erlang:get/1. It is used to look up values in the process dictionary. The
syntax highlighter doesn't understand that get/2 is defined locally in the
current module, so it thinks your call to get is to the underlying
'erlang:get/1', not to ?MODULE:get/2. And all problems stems from there.
