Eh, it's fine if they're keywords as long as not everything is a string. If `"NO"` and `NO` are distinct types, then they're not equal and there's no Norway problem. YAML treats strings, numbers, null, and booleans as all the same type (scalars). The problem isn't keywords clashing with common words, it's not having distinct types!
