Have you considered generating your YAML/JSON config with something that composes?

If you are open to it you might be interested in dhall [1] as it’s a config language with variables, functions and imports.

I have used it for pet projects and I could see how it could offer some tidy encapsulation patterns for larger, more complicated production applications.

Cliché is spelled with é, rather than è, which makes the word sound more like cleesh, not cleeshay.

Actually, the French spelling and pronunciation is cliché [kliché] (accent aigu, abrupt stop), but the English pronunciation is better achieved with è [klishay] (accent grave, extended).

Note that there are no words in French that end with è.

This is when I feel the need to interject and recommend the "macron" (nothing to do with the president of the same name!) [1]

This is the first rule of French: there is at least one exception to every rule.

And this probably includes the first rule itself.

I'd say it's not really a French word but a transliteration of the Ancient Greek word ἡ κοινὴ
