  1. one of key reason not to choose Jetpack JSON API is that it requires to connect to wordpress.com for API calls.

    some usefully comparison here.
    WP API vs Jetpack JSON API

    why not to choose Jetpack, it is well written.

    WP REST API will be merged into WordPress core.
    https://make.wordpress.org/core/features-as-plugins/

    so practically, WP REST API would be merged into WordPress core in ver 4.6. it would be good to choose WP REST API for new development.

    PS, WP REST API also has javascript client, which is not in Jetpack JSON API
