Tons of useless {} and quotes, useless in a configuration file, I mean. Just rewrite an nginx configuration file in JSON and you'll notice the difference even if nginx has its share of {} and ; Do the same exercise on docker compose yml file.

Actually YAML should be easier to amateurs than to professionals. Pros have tools that deal properly with XML, JSON is a lesser problem.
