Oh yes ... THAT thread. Everytime I want to change the output of a nodetool command, it is a never-ending story of running in circles if we can do that. My perception is that we are very sensitive to what it looks like and that we are not breaking it. Addition is mostly fine but god forbid when something is going to be changed. I think we settled with changing it in majors is probably OK but the hard requirement is to have a corresponding JSON output.
