I had the experts write markdown files that contained the rules looked somewhat like:
## 1A Rule name
Some prose explaining the rules liking to official documentation.
``` if municipality and inhabitants > 10000 then functionA else functionB ```
Then a trivial parser would extract the rules, the DSL was then handled by Lark[1]. So pretty simple, but it made collaborating with experts easier as simulated results would also output some markdown they could read.
