    For me, transforming JSON on the command line was a pain, another DSL to learn. Now, I can just use Babashka/ Clojure + one or two functions from Cheshire https://github.com/dakrone/cheshire where I need to. If I needed a standalone tool, I would perhaps reach for https://github.com/borkdude/jet by the same author, Michiel Borkent, as Babashka or use jq that everybody else would find more familiar.
