OK, then.

JSON has been used for many, many years without any strong need for such a comparison semantic in the base spec. It is fine for there to be a separate standard that is usable by applications that want to compare JSON documents; the rest of the world (and that seems like the large majority) can ignore the comparison document and just use the base spec to understand how to create and consume JSON objects and JSON files. --Paul Hoffman
