One problem that I've noticed is the grammar overapplying elision and resyllabification. In this specific case, only resyllabification needs to be applied for the line to scan (DSDSDS). The variable grammar, however, applies elision after the resyllabification as the resyllabification just so happens to present the correct left and right contexts for it. It therefore incorrectly scans the line as SSDSDS. What I'm perplexed about is why it feels like it needs to use elision, since the line does scan properly once resylllabification is in place.

Just looked at this (by adding what I assume that unit test to be; it's not in your PR yet).
It's obvious to me how to scan the last four feet (...bem Patavī sēdēsque locāvit). Nothing fancy there. But I'm a bit at loss of how to get two feet out of Hīc tamen ille ur.... I think this is actually a defective line (probably an error by the poet or in manuscript transmission). You propose resyllabification but I'm not sure you can resyllabify a final n like that: certainly our grammars don't allow you to do that, because nasalization has already applied. I am now wondering whether n is different than m in this regard.
Then, the only way I see to make this work is to elide the en in tamen and lengthen it its first syllable via diastole. I checked: the weight for the output pronunciation is 10,200. This means it applied elision twice and diastole once.
This might be a good question for one of those online fora where people discuss Latin scansion...there's one on Stack Overflow for instance. I asked on Twitter: https://twitter.com/wellformedness/status/1428049166287114241

Yeah everybody is telling me that the n elides. So I guess I'm wrong: it doesn't do nasal lengthening, that's just m. Can you fix the pronunciation grammar to reflect?
