... as it should — an RFC 4627 implementation that just accepts non-4627 JSON without some form of special flag is broken.

There is a tendency of JSON implementers to accept soup, and that also includes accepting JSON extensions such as this one without appropriate permission.
(Unfortunately, Ruby’s default JSON parser currently has only a single not very well documented toggle called “quirks_mode” that switches on the 7159 extensions together with a whole lot more questionable stuff.
Can also be activated by using JSON.load() instead of JSON.parse().)
