I can’t speak for the others, but at least in Rust the column number is at the end of the first line of the error, in format file.rs:line:column, eg main.rs:5:10

There are a few example errors here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/36611

Are the annotated code snippets after the first line useless with screen readers? I wonder if there’s a flag to hide just the snippets.

There is a flag to hide the snippets and give a more compact output; you can also get it in JSON, I believe.

seems I was mistaken, Rust seems fine. I was probably misremembering, as I haven't played much with it. The point about Python and other still stands, though.
