The ECMAScript specification allows primitives at the root level, specifies
exactly how to interpret numbers, and can handle " bit sequences which
cannot encode Unicode characters" just fine.

Other issues:

I don't think we've seen a JSON implementation "suffer fatal runtime
exceptions" in the presence of the aforementioned bit sequences. Carsten
showed the Python 3 print function throwing an exception, but its standard
JSON module parsed and then stringified them without error.

I don't think there is a rationale for the text on -0.0. Is it for
non-IEE754 implementations?
