Personally, HCL is what bothers me. Yes, it’s infrastructure-as-code... but that code is in a niche proprietary language. It gets unpleasant as soon as you go beyond trivial static config.

Pulumi and AWS CDK are taking what I think is a better approach: use your favourite general-purpose language to build the declarative infrastructure definition.
