+1 except I would not say that "I want to write JSON as close as possible”. 

It’s either zero friction or it’s already good enough. 

In Amber, for example, you already can write a JSON object “as close as 
possible” to the original syntax and is o-kay but is not really great because 
you’re still being taxed when compared to JavaScript and that taxing might 
never payoff, that’s why I say that we are either currently okay or we move 
towards zero-JSON-friction.

Amber:
#{ ‘key1’-> value1. ‘key2 -> value2 }   <— kind of okay, survivable


JavaScript:
{key1: value1, key2: value2}   <— awesome, no friction to party with the rest 
of the world, it rocks!
