Then they should make quotes necessary in the YAML-specification. Little more to write, but better to validate.

- milliams 4y agoI agree. They make a rod for their own back by having implicit conversion rules which, while well defined, are not well understood. "Explicit is better than implicit" and all that.
- progx 4y agoAdvantage: things like "literal_block: |" or ">" are not necessary with a simple quote. And i really don't know, why in hell they add binary-Data to a configuration language for humans.
- IshKebab 4y agoGreat idea. I would also suggest adding some syntax to make lists and maps more obvious (it can be a bit unclear in YAML). Maybe {} for maps and [] for lists.
