What would be the benefit of using JSON? INI is a simple format to both read and write, it is also easier to edit manually.

As JSON is more widespread, it has become a standard for most program’s configuration.

INI is simpler to write, simpler to understand, simpler to read, and you can do it in Notepad. JSON is for Object Serialization for programs to read and understand objects. There are barely objects in ASIs created by modders 'round the world, so it would kill a user-friendly aspect of ASILoader. Besides, INI is the standard on Windows, so I see 0 benefit to switching over to a complex-to-users format. Imagine asking a user to add a new boolean, and watching them mess up their commas and brackets. Would be funny to spend hours a day telling people about "fixing the bug".
Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should. - Dr. Ian Malcolm

What about TOML? Or at least allow us to add a preprocessor directive to embed either INI or TOML?

I literally don't see the point of this, pretty much all Windows and a ton of Linux apps use ini files for configuration, and I've only see JSON used for network-related stuff. Literally what would the benefit of switching config file formats be?

JSON/YAML is only used for network-related stuff and machine learning, and that's probably it I guess. INI is a standard "Configuration" file.
While JSON might be good for you, you can refer to this article to see why it's not user friendly.

I know why it’s not user friendly. People don’t understand curly braces.
OK, that’s fine.
