The computer doesn’t have to do these locally—there’s no reason this couldn’t be implemented as a thin client.

I agree that data has to be converted, but I don’t agree that it has to be as manual as it is today. Consider this: In addition to your API, a second JSON file gets generated that describes the schema of the first. On the consuming developer’s end, their language & IDE uses that schema to let you call APIs or RPCs exactly like they were local functions.
