Could you try commenting-out parts of your configuration, perhaps by
recursively bisecting it, to narrow down which parts of it give rise to
the error?

That depends on who is causing the problem - it could be a third-party
package that you have installed, for example.  Until there is a clear
reproduction recipe it's hard to know for sure.

I'm confused; are these the entire contents of the file
sale_line_grammar.json that is mentioned in the backtrace?  Is this some
sort of templating syntax that is replaced with valid JSON later on?  If
so, this issue is more about js-mode or whichever other major mode you
may be using, rather than JSON.  What does C-h v major-mode RET tell you
when you're visiting this file?

I tried the following with both emacs-27 and master and didn't run into
any errors:

0. emacs -Q
1. C-x C-f /tmp/sale_line_grammar.json RET
2. M->
3. M-x delete-backward-char RET
4. C-x z z z z z z z z
