You mean the user should write a JSON number parsing routine
on their own? Then which part is responsible for validation of
JSON contraints? If it is the to!(T) function, then it is
code duplication with chances of getting something wrong,
if it is the JSON parser, then the number is parsed twice.
Besides, there is a lot of code to be shared for every T.
