It is your fault to think normal rules apply to JSON, for sure.
It is exceptional, see for example
$ wc -lwc /var/tmp/steffen/.cache/.mupdf.history
1 22 23240 /var/tmp/steffen/.cache/.mupdf.history
They all do not care no more. (I remove this once in a while, it
would be even worse otherwise.)
You are assumed to use json_pp or something, ah, i think "jq".
Btw my MUA calls its on-program-exit also very late, even
documented so ("after terminal is torn down" or so). I find it
much more natural to configure history during startup, when
case $- finds *i*|*m*.
