Coming from yaml+kustomize, all those curly braces are a tough sell. It looks like they roughly double the number of lines in the file.


While I learned to accept YAML it messes up editor usage.

It is so sensitive that basic text editing like copy and paste, tab, in/decreasing indent never quite do what I expect in IntelliJ.

I paste parts of yaml into another yaml and it ends up somewhere unpredictable.


Curly braces are great at ensuring correctness though, as goto fail; has shown.
