Amazing how intelligent people think intelligence can be quantified in a single number.
Also helps if you want to hang something on the wall.

That is one weird array in Google's reply. Looks like it could have been an object instead, whereby JSON hijacking wouldn't be a problem.

I don't think it was intended in the formal sense either. But "minimalistic" or "small" would probably be more suitable.
