Not sure about all the pros and cons, but I love the notation - much more
intuitive.
Talking about UI - the code itself is UI  (unless it's auto generated, and
then even for debugging it needs to be read/reviewed)

I'd much rather read/code something like

var chartData={
    "columns":{
      'Year':  'string',
      'Videos (in thousands)': 'number',
      'Halfwit comments (in mio.)':'number',
      'Witty comments (in hundreds)':'number',
     },
    "rows":[
      ['2004',20,8,200],
      ['2005',269,74,170],
      ['2006',112,91,155],
      ['2007',213,76,128],
     ]
    };

than something like

  data.addColumn('string', 'Name');
  data.addColumn('number', 'Salary');
  data.addColumn('boolean', 'Full Time');
  data.addRows(5);
  data.setCell(0, 0, 'John');
  data.setCell(0, 1, 10000);
  data.setCell(0, 2, true);
  data.setCell(1, 0, 'Mary');
  data.setCell(1, 1, 25000);
