Are these documented YAML 1.2 JSON incompatibilities listed / linked to somewhere?

I assume these are something related to non-ascii string encoding / escapes?

They are listed in that same CPAN link

"Please note that YAML has hardcoded limits on (simple) object key lengths that JSON doesn't have and also has different and incompatible unicode character escape syntax... YAML also does not allow \/ sequences in strings"
