hjk10157314yTrue story!
That's a dirty hack. Bound to fail with such a large user base. They should have added a type property to the fields. Than you can try and do some coercion. -
620hun83704y@hjk101 that’s what I don’t understand. Why don’t they deserialise each field based on their expected type? They’re pretty much brute coercing them.

Would be interesting to see what they run into. I know people with single letter surnames hate programmers. Null would also be interesting.
