Ok so it allows e notation, but still the actual numerical value is unambiguous. You could parse that into a data structure that (for example) stores the mantissa and exponent as (arbitrarily large) integers. Again, that most languages try to shoehorn decimals into floats or whatever is on those languages.
In court you would be right, in practice it's on JSON. Requiring an arbitrary precision math library to correctly parse JSON is just not going to happen. The only language I know that even does this out of the box is Python with their automagic best numeric type. Even Ruby which is dynamic to a fault only gives arbitrary precision for integers and parses JSON numbers with decimals as floats.
