Why not just `tree-sitter-language-name` which the major mode can set
buffer-locally.

    (setq-local tree-sitter-language-name 'foo)

is better than

    (add-to-list 'tree-sitter-major-mode-language-alist '(foo-mode . foo))

[ Among other things because it won't signal an error when
  `tree-sitter.el` is not loaded.  ]
