Honestly, I've only really used `jq` to quickly parse JSON structures in interactive sessions e.g

  curl -s http://foo.bar | jq .some.nested.value
Anything more complicated I would indeed go for writing a proper script.

Don't tell anyone, but jq is secretly a pretty well thought out functional programming language.
