Well part of it. But mostly I think a lot of the JSON is better than
XML is more hype than merit. And It's not exactly hard to find a good
XML library on any platform I've used. And libexpact is very efficient.

I also like the TSV style approach but think it can potentially
limiting. Also could probably lead to less than desirable layouts in
the future as the only real way to expand that is adding another
column, leaving the old ones in and having positional parsers.
