Thanks, but I tend to ignore this. Every time you, as a direct end-user, provide feedback on format or software, someone appears with a whole philosophy around why you shouldn't be like that and what you should do instead. And sometimes there's no "why" part even.

But I really don't need philosophy. I know what I want, and I want json with $subj, //comments and optional key quoting. Feels like some people just love making inconvenient things standard and/or teaching others how to live. (I mean the idea "json is not for X" here, not your comment)
