Minecraft server requires "name" field in whitelist.json but ignores it

Minecraft servers require both the uuid and name fields, despite the name field having no affect over the whitelist. If the name field is missing, the server will ignore the whitelist and the allowed {{uuid}}s entirely.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Start a vanilla server in the latest version
  2. Enter the following into the whitelist.json file:
    (changing the uuid to your own account's)
    [
      {
        "uuid": "*[UUID]*"
      }
    ]
    
  3. Restart the server
  4. Try and join with an account that is not whitelisted

Expected & Observed Result:

The un-whitelisted account can join the server, despite not being included in whitelist.json.
