Do understand that things change over time, from simple beginnings to complex offspring. But I agree with many commenters here; it is frustrating and a ball-ache to have to learn yet another syntax to manage build dependencies and instructions. On that, I also detest how YAML, Python and so on make space indentation a core aspect of how the files are interpreted and processed. That idea stinks. imvho.

Oh, I agree as well. I was just providing context.
