Naming JSON.parsePrimitive instead of parseImmutable #327

Closed hax closed 2 years ago

hax commented 2 years ago

I think "immutable" is more broad, it could also mean immutable objects, people may think JSON.parseImmutable returns deep frozen immutable array/objects. So parsePrimitive may be the more accurate name.

Another reason that I don't like "immutable" in the API name, is it make us impossible to explore the possibility of "mutable" value type (like Swift, Kotlin) in the future.

That sounds like we'll be able to discuss this in the detached proposal for parseImmutable that we intend to detach in #330.
