GJ is used by Cap'n Proto [1] which would be interesting to have in there,
this would be a reason in favour of GJ.

Cap'n Proto provides serialization with schema evolution and RPC with promises.
It can also be serialized to JSON which would be useful for HTTP APIs.
It has implementations in many languages [2] and also
a very useful wireshark dissector plugin[3] I always wished to have.
