I've always kind of assumed that "looks like existing popular token JSON formats" was an unspoken goal of this format. This is how Amazon's Style Dictionary and the Tokens Studio plugin for Figma do things (or at least did last time I looked), so that's what we started with. A reserved prefix character `$` seems a lot better to me than having a random set of words like `value` be reserved (and not being able to extend that reserved list in the future), and for quick hand-editing, this format is pretty decent. The alternative of having every other node be `tokens` would be pretty obnoxious to read and type, but for sure it would make it a lot easier to code for. -- GitHub Notification of comment by TravisSpomer Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group/issues/225#issuecomment-1679174867 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
