I tried this and it works for me with node 11. Maybe I'm missing something?
The console output for your initial example list looks like an object judging by the curly braces.
This is what the node REPL does for me:
|> JSON.stringify({1:"abc"})
'{"1":"abc"}'
|> let x = []
undefined
|> x[1] = "abc"
'abc'
|> JSON.stringify(x)
'[null,"abc"]'
As you can see both numbers as property names and arrays with unset indexes work fine with JSON.stringify.
Hey there,

Numerical property names are in the specs. I think author's screenshot of first log { 0: ..., 1:... } is not correct.
