Is that “allowing” for markup, or is it exactly what an Extensible Markup Language was intended and designed to do? I wouldn’t expect a JavaScript Object Notation to be able to do that ergonomically.
XML’s design as a markup language, and not an object or config language, is clear even in that example. The first character of the contents of `tag` is newline.
