... "what constitutes a program?" .... A program consisting of just use JSON; ...

It was to answer your question that I gave examples of very simple programs incorporating the use JSON; statement (or possibly other, similar statements) that could actually be run as programs and that might provide useful insight into the root problem.

    All of your examples include code other than use JSON;
