You've never had to read arbitrary json?

I just did a quick check (apparently DuckDuckGo has a built in JSON validation function lol love it) and `[1, "foo"]` does pass their JSON validation.

Not surprised but I did want to confirm.

Am I missing something, why wouldn't a non-homogeneous array literal pass?

Because mixing types in an array is stupid enough that I thought it might just not be valid.
