Do you have a link for that?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe... says:

> Insignificant whitespace may be present anywhere except within a JSONNumber [forbidden] or JSONString [interpreted as part of the string]

And specifically lists tab as whitespace:

> The tab character (U+0009), carriage return (U+000D), line feed (U+000A), and space (U+0020) characters are the only valid whitespace characters.

More specifically, expanding https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8259#section-2 gives an array as (roughly)

> ws %x5B ws value (ws %x2C ws value)* ws %x5D ws

Where `ws` explicitly includes `%x09`. Which seems to cover this case?
