I feel that Yaml sucks. I understand the need for such markup language but I think it sucks. Somehow it’s clunky to use. Can you explain why?

    To be pendantic, it’s level of indentation in Python that has semantic meaning, not whitespace.

        Indentation can be (and should be) tabs, EOL is it’s its own thing either \n or CRLF which Python source code did actually care about as recently as 2.3.

        Assumptions like this is why most people should stick to verbose languages with lots of guardrail braces.
