No, because the functionality this is the core of is explicitly for small, simple JSON tasks. If the core were streaming, you would need to always write quite a bit of non-trivial code for small, simple JSON tasks. Note that the lack of some convenience methods here doesn't even increase the number of lines of code needed. It just makes the lines more noisy.
