HCL is fine for this. Editors highlight matching braces, typically, and the parser will typically fail if they are mismatched.

The concern is that your braces are technically matched, but not in the intended way, which happens a lot. Probably more than tab errors in python in my experience
- jen20 3y agoCan you give an example of HCL which is ambiguous under these conditions?
