Yes and no. The LLM that sees a JSON structure can decide to use tools to extract and format data as needed, whereas it cannot do the same with natural language.

The Unix philosophy of small, composable tools is still valid in the era of stochastic machines!

As I said, I agree with you in the case of big outputs. But for small outputs, tool calls can be reliably created from the NL version. There's no need for JSON.
