I was just about to name that as an example. Newline separated JSON is a so much simpler solution to the problem than streaming JSON parsers. They're easier to understand, and it's trivial to implement.

From a purity point of view, sure, streaming JSON is more "correct", but I wouldn't call it the better solution.
