This might might sound weird but I think that's a distinction without a difference.

Those "newline tokens" are effectively the equivalent to a semicolon in the parser. They are statement terminators. The way that Odin or Python handles them is effectively the same except when I tokenize the newlines, they are treated as semicolons but with the "text" being "\n". Thus the distinction here is a matter of what you call it, not how it is treated.

That is the same as a form of "automatic statement-terminator insertion" where that statement-terminator is whatever you want it to be. And to me, that is as form of "semicolon" (which is being used as a generalization for statement-terminator) insertion.
