Multi-line strings in JSON are also an embarrassment: https://stackoverflow.com/a/2392888

As a consequence, the amount of parsing and processing that you need to do is really bad for performance. Of course, there are formats like YAML and TOML that go in the opposite direction - they try to cover all use cases and end up being overcomplicated.

There are occasionally other attempts like JSON5 to improve things: https://json5.org/

However those also oftentimes are not very popular, because there is just too much ecosystem that has been built around the older formats, like XML, JSON and even YAML.
