They’ve changed the title[1] to remove the phrasing “bad,” I think the title should be updated here as well, even if the repo name still reflects the original title. It’s not reasonable to use this single criteria as a measure of “badness,” as there are many different variables. I would place security/memory safety 1000x higher than recursion limits. I have never hit JSON recursion limits in production.
