Doesn't Java lack a JSON parser in the standard library?

[amake]

As of Java 8, the Nashorn JavaScript engine is included by default, and it does support JSON parsing.

The standard Java library includes a JavaScript interpreter, so there has to be a parser for object literals in there somewhere.

Object literals aren't JSON, though.

JS has stringify and parse, so there ought to be a JSON parser somewhere.

One thing that the article mentions is that there are in fact strings that are valid JSON but not valid JS object literals.

A modern JS implementation should also have a JSON parser
