Well, apart from the plain stupid you mean?
It's quite clear to me that this epidemic is disproportionally affecting poor people, and that's not just because they're stupid, (well some obviously are), but rather because they have "essential" jobs that they cannot afford staying home from. Especially in some countries where sick pay isn't enforced, which makes it a double whammy in this case.
I don't think real estate agents are essential in any way, but I do believe they have provision based salary.
I also believe there is a lot you need to do in person as a real estate agent, so I guess their "common sense" get quite blunted after a while.

People don't following the voluntary (lockdown is forced so it is another thing) social distancing in Spain... around 20
In Germany around 20 too
Anti Vaxxers in spain... no numbers
In Germany 5 (not only Covid related vaccines, normal ones too and they have kids  )
Some even went to the demonstrations and all of them are (still) healthy.
Infected people I would say around 30 to 40 people in Spain (3 of them ended in death) and 5 in Germany (low to mid severity)

Funny really. I don't know any antivaxxers at all.
I also don't know anyone that's been sick either. Apparently some temp worker at my wife's job had it in the spring, and a teacher at my sons school, otherwise it's just Griff.

I have a couple of friends, in their thirties, regular runners and healthy... who can no longer climb the stairs to the second floor.
When a vaccine will be distributed in Italy I will do all I can, legal or barely, to have me and my wife vaccinated ASAP - especially because her company does not let her do smartworking, despite being completely possible and her having to travel 50 km on public transportation in one way and then again back.

Not sure if you realize it, but IMO you're doing a great service to the community at large making these posts. Nothing alarming. Not trying to scare anyone. Letting the reader make up his own mind just by stating the facts as they are, coming from someone who's been there (or rather, smack in the middle of it and still having to deal with it).
If this convinces one anti-vaxxer to go for it if s/he's lucky enough to get it...it was probably worth it.

I have to convert a recursive traversal to an iterative one. 
My poor ESP32 can't handle the stack my JSON reader is generating. I have an optimization for skipping entire subtrees wihout actually parsing everything therein. The problem is it calls skipObjectPart() which may call skipArrayPart() which may call skipObjectPart(). Here I thought I was already ahead because it doesn't use stack in cases like { "foo": { "bar": {} } } only on the edge conditions where you're transitioning from a nested array to a nested object and vice versa like { "foo": [ { "bar": {} } ] } but even with that optimization it takes too much stack on my test document (about 120kB of highly nested JSON data)
So now I need to figure out how to do the whole thing iteratively
I do not like having to eliminate recursion. I guess this is what I get for porting from C# code to an embedded device.
It just occurred to me that I could eliminate the recursion entirely and easily by not distinguishing between {} and []. I would expect the document to be balanced in terms of left right brackets but i could ignore what the actual brackets are. That would lead to things like accepting { foo: [} ] but I think I might be able to get away that. Consider what a bad document looks like. If it's corrupt, how likely is it to be corrupt but still balanced in terms of general left and right brackets? Do you think this is an acceptable optimization for a tiny device who is reading data that 99% of the time will be machine generated? I've seen some pretty nefarious hacks to get big data to run on small systems, and this is one such situation. I'm flexible.

When it has to be done, it has to be done. I had to do the same thing with QuadTree traversal, because recursive procedures were much too slow.

Too slow? How can that possibly be?
Until yesterday I would have come with my old and evil ways, but now I'm a reborn wraith (*) and must tell you that the compiler is far better than you at taking care of such things. Stacks are social constructs now, so you can easily ignore it. Then you can easily ignore it. It's size is now irrelevant and the calling overhead in recursive methods is also gone. Maybe it will help if your classes identify as iterative? Try to set the [iterative] attribute.
(*) No, I'm not.

I would say it would be difficult to get the number of brackets matching and being wrong, but not hugely unlikely, as they share a key, so manually editing could introduce that issue.
You have to ask yourself two questions:
1. What would the issue be if that error is ignored?
2. How difficult would it be to add the checking (possibly at a different pipeline stage) i.e. by pushing a boolean onto a stack when getting a [{ and pulling and checking when getting a ]}?
I would probably try and check it, but I do not know the answer to 1. and do not know how close to the hardware/timing limit adding this check would take you. Also it could be overkill for parsing something that is machine generated.
Good luck

1. I'm not sure in the specific since this is a json reader and it depends on what kind of data they're using it for. It would mean practically at least in the abstract that it would accept invalid documents. The way they're invalid is so contrived though that I can't think of what that would even look like for the reader. It basically means it works kind of like overlapping tags do in old HTML except this overlaps your "array" data with your "object" data
2. It's a very finite memory issue. The problem is this JSON reader is designed to parse data of any length and any degree of nesting. That works when you have gobs of RAM like in .NET on a modern laptop but it's much different when you're doing everything on the stack and that stack is small on a 520kB ram TOTAL machine. Worse, I have no idea how much memory I'd need. And the icing on that fail cake is you get no warning when you're out of stack. Your machine reboots.  This to me seems like a worse problem than accepting potentially invalid documents, now that I think about it. What do you think?

I would allow ignoring potentially invalid documents.
You are not trying to validate the document, but to read it. Applying the robustness rule works here (Be conservative in what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others.)
BTW, thanks for sharing these projects you are working on, they are fascinating.

The problem is that '{' and '[' introduce different types of entities. '{' should be followed by <propertyname>':' <value> [',' <propertyname>':' <value>]... '}' whereas '[' should be followed by <value>[',' <value> ']' (where 'x' represents a literal x). To disambiguate, you'd have to see if the first two tokens after the '{' | '[' are <propertyname>':' rather than just parsing the first token after '{' | '[' which can be ambiguous (JSON accepts a quoted string as a <value> and as a <propertyname>).

My JSON reader (in C# of course) is not recursive, it keeps a Stack of incomplete Objects as it reads.
It Pushes a new Object onto the Stack when it finds a { or [ .
It Pops the top Object off the Stack when it finds a } or ] .
But, looking at the code now, I see that it doesn't verify that they match -- only that they balance.
I wrote it in a hurry.

Underneath, I use a pull parser, which doesn't keep a stack either - it uses a state machine and forces the user of it to keep track of where they are. However, it recurses when it skips over (partial parsing). I could have made that use a stack but it would have been actually a bit harder to port to my arduino stuff. In the arduino version I use neither - I just keep a depth count, and i don't check if { [ ] } match, only that they balance, like you do.
