The lie is almost always in an external API response from fetch (hence the complaint about “any” above).

Off the top of my head… Go’s stdlib json.Unmarshal and Rust’s Serde derive Deserialize.

The lie is when your code uses* the “any” value where a concrete type is expected.

I was misunderstanding your point with the deserialize.

Edit: “using” -> “uses”
