There are other more-apropos threads in the archives, though I'm too
lazy to go find them right now. IMO the problem here is an assumption
that SQL NULL should be interchangeable with a JSON NULL. It's not,
and we don't intend to make it so, because (a) the definitional quagmire
that would result is bottomless; (b) people asking for this are generally
trying to use SQL NULL as a live data value, which is almost always just
a bad idea.
