"Characters like ., will be removed from object keys" - why?

The `json5-to-table` seems ignoring properties with `.` in the key. Here is a fork of this notebook with removal of `.` disabled, https://observablehq.com/d/9de2579a129b779f#cell-16.

A split on "." seems to be the cause: https://github.com/yetrun/json5-to-table/blob/e1b22a7979c77def70ae5f5b7bae480aaa09cfac/lib/helpers/retrieveProperty.js#L33 I can't immediately spot a straight forward way to work around that, but I'd recommend to replace "." with "_" instead of removing. Can you add an example to your fork that shows how commas in the prop name affect the output? In my tests adding a "," in the keys worked fine.

Removing `,` is my stupidity. I'll keep commas as it is. I'll replace `.` to `_` like you suggested. Seems more sensible than removing it.

✅ Done
