My understanding is that the bugs (both times) were in block deserialization code. People want to write bitcoin-processing applications in a variety of languages, which means we’re going to have parsers in different languages. Having only one implementation of the full node wont change that.

Nope. The bugs are in validation code added on top of deserialization; actual deserialization wouldn't have those issues.
