 @ref basic_json always has a base class.
 By default, this class is used because it is empty and thus has no effect
 on the behavior of @ref basic_json.

+@note This class intentionally lives in namespace @ref nlohmann rather than
+      @ref nlohmann::detail. Every @ref basic_json specialization derives from
+      it (via @ref detail::json_base_class) unless a custom base class is
+      supplied, which makes its namespace an associated namespace of
+      @ref basic_json for the purpose of argument-dependent lookup (ADL). If
+      it lived in `nlohmann::detail`, that namespace - and with it the
+      library's internal `to_json`/`from_json` overloads - would leak into
+      ADL for any unqualified `to_json`/`from_json` call a user makes
+      involving a @ref basic_json argument, silently shadowing the user's own
+      overloads in some cases.
