Looking at this a different way: could we just implement BSON and leave json

In short? No.
For one thing, our storage format is different from theirs (better,
frankly), and as a result is not compliant with their "standard".
That's a reason why we won't use the name BSON, either, since it's a
trademark of 10gen.
What is more, it has restrictions which we do not wish to have. See for
example its treatment of numerics.
