My world-builder JSON string

[robject]

Duplicated from the IISS discussion thread.

My program serves world data as a service via a JSON string. An example is below.

Note the extraneous/redundant "orbit", "greenhouse" and "density" entries, pointing at some dead code I need to trim.

Note that I should also sequester the UWP digits in a sub-structure.

This would be better:
