    Yes. And many people here doesn’t seem to get that.

    I’m not a dev of any kind. I occasionally write some bash and awk scriots to automate some things and if I need some kind of plain text (non-binary) data format I prefer tsv over json.

    So why do I still get this? Is it just that many json advocates want to make sure others know json does support other data types than plain string?
