Frequently Asked Questions
Why are duplicate keys problematic in JSON?
Different backend parsers (Python, Go, Java) resolve duplicates differently, leading to data loss or security bypass bugs.

No, default JSON.parse() silently overwrites earlier keys with the last key value without warning.
Is my payload processed privately?
Yes, deduplication runs 100% in your local browser sandbox.
