Isn't this just the YAML debacle all over again? Where virtually any sequence of text is "valid" (albeit meaningless) YAML?

While I don't care for JSON5 it's hardly "virtually any sequence of text", it rather hews closer to JavaScript content, rather than the very limited subset (ish) that is JSON.

Virtually any sequence is not the same as adopting a specification five years after it’s been published and adopted by industry: https://spec.json5.org/

I appreciate that SQLite can’t write the format, because those changes are human afordances
