 ## Details
 
-### 64. Read back unchanged on V8 every JSON key the emitter writes, with a fixture whose key holds `\`, `"` or a control character.
-
-`property-harness.ts` strips `\`, `"` and control characters from generated JSON keys, citing V8's
-`JSON.parse` returning a wrong key for an escaped backslash. The library reads `json` attributes
-(`directive-syntax.ts`) and both carries (`opaque-carry.ts`) through that `JSON.parse`, so on Node,
-Deno and Chrome the round-trip would refuse its own output or read back a different key; the fixture
-tells which. Confirm with a fixture first; then read JSON with our own parser or record the gap with
-an ending item. Found by the README-goals audit, 2026-10-03.

 ### 43. Give each markdown input its own reader, strict to its own standard.
 
 Today `markdownToAdf` reads CommonMark and the lossless flavour as one input: text shaped like a
