Hi Peter, MooTools had the JSON object before it was specified. This is the reason the method names are different and the implementation of the browser isn't used if present. As Aaron said, I think someone added the support but it must have been lost somewhere.
This shouldn't be that big of a deal though, since the browsers that have the JSON object all have quite fast JS engines and parsing a typical JSON response should be a matter of a few millisecs. This shouldn't be an excuse for not using the native functions, but you probably wont have to worry about it (except if you want to send us a pull request).
