I do think you missed discussion of escape sequences, though. For example,
you can create an absolutely infuriating sequence of surrogate characters
in JSON while the document is correct UTF-8. This dual layering needs to be
discussed for anyone that is trying to figure this stuff out. We're not
writing for the people on this mailing list. It's for the people that show
up later.
