For sure, but most YAML you actually encounter does not use much in the way of JSON syntax, it looks a lot more like this: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/devops/wp-content/uploads/sit...

Where arrays and objects just look too similar (IMO), white space is significant, most strings are unquoted, etc. And personally I find it quite difficult to really understand what’s going on there, at a glance, compared to JSON (or JSON5).
