That's the syntax equivalent of removing guardrails from a dangerous mountain pass to scare drivers into slowing down.

This is probably going to sound like asking someone to catch sunlight in a teacup, but wouldn't it have been more productive to stress the importance of syntax adherence and consistency rather than remove it altogether? There's really nothing stopping someone from abusing the rest of JSON for silly things so leaving comments out seems a bit redundant.
