Ugh, please name and shame the [de]serializer that was silently converting a string to a boolean.

Not sure about JSON, but YAML has the Norway problem: https://hitchdev.com/strictyaml/why/implicit-typing-removed/

[formerly_proven → bonzini]

JSON does not, because JSON is explicitly typed:

   - "... - string
   - 14, 14.5 - number (problematic)
   - false, true - bool
   - {... - object
   - [... - array
   - null

No cute abbreviations.

The problem we ran into is that they can all be configured to do whatever. There's no consistently or standard

[_-___________-_ → throwaway189262]

well, there's the JSON standard, which does not define "false" and false as equivalent.
