 The syntax `x[y]` is for indexing maps and arrays.  If `x` is an array, then `y` must evaluate to an integer.  If `x` is a map, then `y` must evaluate to a key in that map.

+Pair values can be specified inside of a WDL using another Python-like syntax, as follows:
 
 ```
 Pair[Int, String] twenty_threes = (23, "twenty-three")
 ```
 
+Pair values can also be specified within the [workflow inputs JSON](https://github.com/broadinstitute/wdl/blob/develop/SPEC.md#specifying-workflow-inputs-in-json) with a `Left` and `Right` value specified using JSON style syntax. For example, given a workflow `wf_hello` and workflow-level variable `twenty_threes`, it could be declared in the workflow inputs JSON as follows:
+```
+{
+  "wf_hello.twenty_threes": { "Left": 23, "Right": "twenty-three" }
