Having the experiment saved as CIF is necessary to allow for the unified lib/app treatment of exp data.
While JSON is good for serializing the app state (along with all parameters, structural and experimental), it is not readily transferrable for reuse in the Library.
Being able to read in and write out experiment CIF is important for the polarized beam support and needs to be addressed.
