Yes. But,

a contributor today has to guess what is the preferred syntax. Could we
have a checkpatch rule for this? Or should I send a patch to make the
whole file consistent at once?

Side question: are we using valid JSON at all? I threw this in a random
online linter and it complains about the single quotes. We could have a
proper tool doing the validation in CI.
