I also think that a lot of the problems with yaml specifically are overblown, but this post is actually not about that!

It is specifically saying the same problem exists in JSON/YAML/TOML, etc, which is that all these configuration languages don't have any real means of abstraction, and ultimately aren't expressive enough do to the job we require of them.

as soon as you are templating config files with other configs, I agree, I have sorely felt this limitation with helm charts
