+//   1. Invalid JSON
+//   2. Duplicate keys in any object (JSON.parse silently keeps the last value)
+//   3. Key-parity drift between en.json and de.json (key in one, missing in the other)
+//
+// JSON.parse drops duplicate keys without raising, so for (2) we re-tokenize
+// the raw text and walk the object structure ourselves.
