### When to use this command?
Use this command when you want to convert from USV to JSON.
A typical use case is when you have USV data, such as a collection of units and
records, and you want to convert it to JSON data, such as for a spreadsheet
import.
Our real-world use case is converting a bunch of USV document-oriented data
from a variety of programs, including a CMS, to USV so we're better-able to
import the data into Excel.
### Why use USV instead of JSON?
See the documentation for [USV](https://github.com/sixarm/usv).
### Is USV aiming to become a standard?
Yes, USV is submitted to IETF.org as an Internet-Draft work in progress:
