Syntax highlighting doesn't count commas. The problem is JSON doesn't allow trailing commas, so adding or reordering frequently results in a difficult to diagnose error.

Finding out if a set ends in a comma or not still makes it easier to debug than YAML.

Not my experience, 10x more trouble with long JSON.
