There is only way too much complexity with YAML if you try to use it. JSON-with-comments makes perfectly good YAML if you like that. Nobody forces you to allow the more esoteric features into your code base. You don't even need to know they exist. You can even use a library like StrictYAML if you don't trust your coworkers to be sensible.
