As someone who has spent the last 7-8 years working on declarative infrastructure tooling: this is only better if the tool can work out how to get from where things are to where you want them to be without being destructive. It’s not like these tools are composing pure functions, sadly.

The tool has one job, They do ofcourse fail regularly, I feel that devops tools are 10 years behind our development tooling
