Comment(by nacin):

 The compat version of {{{json_decode()}}} is designed to only initialize
 the {{{Services_JSON()}}} class once, even if called multiple times. Using
 the diff you suggest, if you used both {{{json_decode( $json, true )}}}
 and {{{json_decode( $json, false )}}} in a script, whichever was called
 first would be what you would get for both.

 There are two ways to do this if we wish to support this level of
 compatibility. We could allow {{{Services_JSON()}}} to be initialized a
 second time using the loose typing option if an array is requested... or,
 potentially less overhead, convert the result of {{{$wp_json->decode()}}}
 if arrays are what is requested.
