The behavior as-is is very surprising! Check this out:

import "pkl:json"

hidden jsonString = """
  {
    "hello": "world",
    "default": "greeting"
  }
  """

asDynamic = new json.Parser {}.parse(jsonString)
asMapping = new json.Parser { useMapping = true }.parse(jsonString)

Result:

asDynamic {
  hello = "world"
}
asMapping {
  ["hello"] = "world"
  ["default"] = "greeting"
}

I think throwing an error (or at least some kind of warning) here instead of returning unexpected results is desirable. Something like "encountered object key default when parsing JSON, resulting Dynamic will be incomplete or invalid" might make sense.

N.B.: Attempting to access the default yields further surprises:

asDynamicDefault = asDynamic.default

Result:

❯ pkl eval test.pkl
–– Pkl Error ––
Expected value of type `Function1`, but got type `String`.
Value: "greeting"

Fair issue; seems like a good idea to throw here instead.
