Good point, thanks. Specified here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6902#section-4.6

Yet, I would still like a checksum option because of its constant size impact.

I didn't consider before though that checksumming would differ from json's understanding of equality if items are reordered (objects, but also some other cases like integers with explicit sign +0, 0, -0). Those cases could (optionally) be considered in a normalization step.
