Nick Coghlan added the comment: The parallel API would have to be:
json.dump_bytes json.dumps_bytes json.load_bytes json.loads_bytes That is hardly an improvement over: json.bytes.dump json.bytes.dumps json.bytes.load json.bytes.loads It doesn't need to be documented as a completely separate module, it can just be a subsection in the json module docs with a reference to the relevant RFC. The confusion is inherent in the way the RFC was written, this is just an expedient way to resolve that: the json module implements the standard, the bytes submodule implements the RFC.
