Dunno, to me YAML is the python of markup languages.
YAML is decent at handling things like nesting and arrays, while TOML sucks at it.
I don't dislike YAML that much.
That being said, we knew since the dawn of C macros that templating languages which are not aware of syntax, are AWFUL.
Likewise, writing Helm charts (the place I encountered YAML templating) is just horrible, but would be so much nicer is templates respected the YAML syntax tree and expanded at the right subnode, instead of being a text replace botch-jobs.
