"In fact, why can't all floats that are ambiguous wrt an integer interpretation have a ".0" tail?" In JavaScript Object Notation, everything's a float. There are no integers, just floats that happen to not have any fractional elements. Numbers are the weakest part of the JSON spec in general because Javascript has very weak numbers. A spec merely intending to tidy up certain questionable corners hasn't really got license to "fix" the numbers problem. (And just to make it clear one more time, I fully agree that the numbers are really problematic in JSON... I just don't think that problem can be fixed here. It would take a JSON 2.) |
