No. In Version 1, a Scheme list was always written as a JSON list
(and signaled an error if the components were pairs), whereas a Scheme
vector was always written as an JSON object (and signaled an error if
the components were *not* pairs).
In Version 2, there is no difference between (non-empty) lists and
vectors: it's all about whether the components are pairs (write an object)
or not (write a list).

And now here I was, in a country where a right to say how the country should
be governed was restricted to six persons in each thousand of its population.
For the nine hundred and ninety-four to express dissatisfaction with the
regnant system and propose to change it, would have made the whole six
shudder as one man, it would have been so disloyal, so dishonorable, such
putrid black treason. --Mark Twain's Connecticut Yankee
