Wouldn't be possible to write an external tool that converts JSON to s-expressions and vice-versa?

Sure, but then you're just adding additional layers to what was supposed to a fairly straight forward script. Much easier to just include everything in a single program so you can just say give path to input json file here, give name of output file here, and run.
