What makes it look like JSON to you?
The fact that it _is_ valid JSON (at least according to the parsers
I've tried on it, both locally and using things like jsonlint.com).
And I tried it on the Python REPL. It's Python too.
If someone wrote the following on this list:
foo = bar(1, x, 3 * (x - 1), frob("hello world"))
.. and I said "That looks like C to me", I suspect you and a lot of
other people would ask me what makes me think that is C and not
something else. Like Python, for example.
(I'm not arguing, I'm asking what I've missed).
My point was (I thought clearly) "What makes this exclusively JSON and
not something else"? I even suggested that I was possibly missing
something so as to come across as questioning and not argumentative. I
guess that didn't work either.
