I'm not affiliated with the project but I believe the chance of OpenBSD adopting JSON as a config file format are approximately zero, to whatever degree of precision you might choose.

The pf language is also shockingly readable for a firewall config

Sounds about right, but they also don't need to, all the OpenBSD specific configuration is mostly done in the same manor, meaning that if you know PF, then the configuration language for httpd, relayd or OpenSMTPd isn't all that foreign to you.

JSON is generally a pretty poor configuration language, so I wouldn't hope that it would be adopted.
