+#### Stricter JSON parser (#10346 by @fisker)
+
+Previously we allow all kinds of JavaScript expressions in `json` and `json5` parser, now they are stricter.
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+```js
+// Input
+[1, 2, 1 + 2]

+// Prettier stable
+[1, 2, 1 + 2]

+// Prettier main
+SyntaxError: BinaryExpression is not allowed in JSON. (1:8)
+> 1 | [1, 2, 1 + 2]
+    |        ^
