I've done some testing on this. The first SharePoint List that I tried adding JSON to was a list "created from an existing list." This is the list that was problematic for me with the JSON.

Klutzu2 BRUuuuh! this worked. I forgot I even created this one from another list but must have been.

Issue prevails with a list created from scratch (blank list) and a custom content type added.
