StrictYAML removes features that might be useful for some usecases, such as Node anchors+Refs and Flow Style. I don't think the cost of an additional standard is worth it in this case. While YAML has issues, they aren't much of problem if you use a linter, such as yamllint [1]. This can be enforced as part of the CI process. 1. https://github.com/adrienverge/yamllint https://github.com/adrienverge/yamllint
