It seems this has been a problem since 2014.

LitJson does not handle empty lists or arrays as a new JsonData object or as an addition to an existing JsonData object.

These 4 tests in Unity all fail.

using UnityEngine;
using LitJson;
using UnityEditor;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;

namespace DefaultNamespace
{
public class TestLitJsonArray : MonoBehaviour
{
[MenuItem("Window/TestLitJsonList")]
static void doTest1()
{
List strings = new List();
JsonData jd = new JsonData();
jd.Add(strings);
File.WriteAllText(Application.streamingAssetsPath+("/arrayTest1.json"),jd.ToJson());
}

    [MenuItem("Window/TestLitJsonList2")]
    static void doTest2()
    {
        List<string> strings = new List<string>();
        JsonData jd = new JsonData(strings);
        File.WriteAllText(Application.streamingAssetsPath+("/arrayTest2.json"),jd.ToJson()); 
    }
    
    [MenuItem("Window/TestLitJsonArray")]
    static void doTest3()
    {
        string[] strings2 = new string[1];  // Im trying to write a 0 length array, it errors if this is 1 or 0
        JsonData jd = new JsonData();
        jd.Add(strings2);
        File.WriteAllText(Application.streamingAssetsPath+("/arrayTest3.json"),jd.ToJson()); 
    }
    
    [MenuItem("Window/TestLitJsonArray2")]
    static void doTest4()
    {
        string[] strings2 = new string[1];
        JsonData jd = new JsonData(strings2);
        File.WriteAllText(Application.streamingAssetsPath+("/arrayTest4.json"), jd.ToJson()); 
    }
}

}

error is
Unable to wrap ... with JsonData

here's a real world example of the output:
], "connections": "camerapositionX" : "0", "camerapositionY": "0",

connections should be [] but i'd be ok with null but its blank.
