After looking at some alternatives in KV dbs and in memory hashmaps, it is obvious that one can collapse the object key names down into a path of sorts that becomes a key or make the object attributes into a hash. So from that standpoint, JSON isn't strictly required to get roughly the same result. In terms of a compact wire format, I'll explore some form of TLV8 encoding.
