failure outside any element, such as a syntax error between two elements or a 
missing closing bracket.</td>

Review Comment:
   **Nit (P3):** `columnNameOfCorruptRecord` is the option that names the 
destination field, not the field itself. Please say that PERMISSIVE fills the 
field configured by `columnNameOfCorruptRecord`; the rest of the element-level 
explanation can stay unchanged.

Review Comment:
   **Non-blocking (P2):** This new iterator route has no enabled case with an 
explicit non-UTF-8 encoding, and the archive route has the same independent 
wiring. Replacing either `streamParser` argument with the default parser would 
leave the UTF-8 streaming tests and eager encoding tests green. Please cover an 
explicitly encoded non-UTF-8 top-level array through both directory and archive 
reads.

Review Comment:
   **Non-blocking (P2):** The compatibility boundary here is the behavior when 
callers leave both settings unset, but every malformed-array test currently 
forces this key to true or false. A future default flip would change ordinary 
reads from document-level to element-level recovery without failing those 
grids. Please add a malformed multiline top-level-array case with neither the 
session key nor per-read option set and assert the eager whole-document result.
