This is invalid (though probably unintentionally). An array
cannot have
names for elements.
There can't be two comments with the same key though. --

Why not? I believe this is valid json:
{
"comment" : "this is the first value",
"value1" : 42,
"comment" : "this is the second value",
"value2" : 101
}
Though, I would much rather see a better comment tag than
"comment":.
json isn't ideal for this.
You're right. Good convo:

No, he is wrong, and even if he was right, he would still be
wrong. JSON objects are unordered so if you read then write you
can get:
{
"comment" : "this is the second value",
"value1" : 42,
"value2" : 101
}
