The question, it seems to me, is whether or not folks such as yourself will visit <https://bugreport.apple.com/> to up the priority of said parsing bug. As previously noted, the only documented exception for the non-optionality of 'the' is 'the clipboard' and all other documented usage is optional.
Here is another place where "the" cannot be used:
set the testList to {"one", 1, "two", 2, "three", 3} repeat with the Element in testList display dialog the Element end repeat
It won't even compile: "Expected variable name or property but found 'the'."
