Review Comment:
My core difficulty is that the parsing logic and the conversion logic
mutually depend on one another:
1. The convertTo methods check if the input is a String, and then run it
through the Parser.
2. After parsing a map or array, the Parser calls convertTo on the elements
to "cast" them to a common schema
I'm pretty sure convertTo -> parser -> convertTo is a reasonable cycle, and
should happen all the time via convertToList, convertToMap.
I don't think that parser -> convertTo -> parser is a useful cycle for
multiple reasons, but proving that is a little bit slippery. With some time I
think I can break this part of the cycle so that this doesn't end up as one big
ball of code again.
