you can have loops and still be declarative, CUE has loops, though they are considered comprehensions more technically, but there is no assignment or stack in CUE

One of the interesting aspects of CUE is that it gives us many of the programming constructs we are used to, but remains Turing incomplete, so no general recursion or user defined functions. There is a scripting layer where you can get more real world stuff done too

The CUE language is super interesting, has a very unique take on things and comes from the same heritage as Go, containers, and Kubernetes
