Well, it's going to a lot more complex to make examples using BSON.

C is the language of the API, and thus the language of the core
examples. When we have enough translations we make translated versions
of the Guide (currently, Lua and PHP).

If you see any particular cases where the examples are confusing, let
me know. There's practically nowhere that we have any structured data,
and where we do, we use frames to serialize.
