You are right, my bad. According to Wikipedia (which has links to RFCs):

Early versions of JSON (such as specified by RFC 4627) required that a 
valid JSON "document" must consist of only an object or an array 
type—though they could contain other types within them. This restriction 
was relaxed starting with RFC 7158, so that a JSON document may consist 
entirely of any possible JSON typed value.
