What's the reason vibe.d's json tools aren't backported to

Probably because no one has ever bothered to try and get them
ready to be
reviewed for inclusion in Phobos. Also, vibe.d seems to have a
lot of
interdependencies with itself, making it so that some parts of
it couldn't be
put into Phobos very easily. I don't know how much of that
affects their json
module though, since I would have thought that that would be
the sort of thing
which would be fairly standalone.

Actually, vibe.d's Json module was nearly independent from the
rest of the framework, I mean until recently (I don't know if it
is any more). It could be extracted in no time. But it seems that
the main reason for not backporting it to Phobos was the need to
wait for std.serialization.
