In addition to the other points made on this thread...

When working on WebAPI::DBIC I found that Cpanel::JSON::XS was the only
JSON serializer to handle dual-vars (eg stringified numbers) correctly.

Per https://metacpan.org/pod/Cpanel::JSON::XS#cPanel-fork

    "fixed encode of numbers for dual-vars. Different string
    representations are preserved, but numbers with temporary strings
    which represent the same number are here treated as numbers,
    not strings. Cpanel::JSON::XS is a bit slower, but preserves
    numeric types better."

So WebAPI::DBIC now requires Cpanel::JSON::XS.

Tim.
