Bear in mind that: the author is part of the ruby core team; json is a standard lib gem; the repo from the json gem was in the original author namespace; the repo had no activity for more than a year, despite several quality MRs.

It took some time to track and get the original author to migrate it to the ruby team namespace.

While I'm glad they to all this trouble, there's only a few who could pull this off. Everyone else would flock to or build a narrative.
