JSON:API can and should be combined with other standards. But there has been some confusion about it in the past. E.g. people tried using it for authentication concerns such as login instead of established standards such as OAuth 2.0. Others assumed an API implementing JSON:API cannot support file upload. There seems to be a need clarifying it in the specification to avoid such confusion going forward.
