I fail to see what leads you to believe this is a relevant point when discussing INI files as the alternative to YAML.
- awestroke 3y agoYaml coerces values (the string "on" is coerced to bool true for example), with ini you do any conversion from strings yourself
- rewmie 3y ago> with ini you do any conversion from strings yourself INI isn't specified, thus you cannot claim that the INI format does something a certain way. The best shot at a specified INI file format might be TOML, and even that format is subjected to the same type of criticism.
