> Credit to SQLite developers for adopting an extant binary JSON format, as opposed to inventing yet another one.

The comment you are replying to cites a statement saying explicitly that they are not adopting the Postgres JSONB binary format, only the name and the abstract concept. The API is not compatible with Postgres either.

I noted that and removed that bit prior to your reply.

Points off for a.) inventing yet another binary JSON and/or b.) using the same name as an existing binary JSON.

Those 2 points are exactly what my comment said
