    The line between configuration is very messy anyways. So many projects abuse YAML as a domain specific language. Looking at you, HomeAssistant and ESPHome!

      I assume less custom configs are better, but I’ve seen Ansible yaml files that are just convoluted bash scripts written in yaml, which makes them even more convoluted.
