I don't understand this either. IMO, the current SOTA tool for configuration is CUE, because it is the only one that lets you write schemas for arbitrary refinements. I haven't used it myself, but my understanding is that everybody should be writing configurations in something like this instead of YAML, TOML, HCL, or a custom DSL with no tooling. And yes, definitely not in a Turing complete programing language.

Cue is amazing, I'm using it to configure my kubernetes homelab.

I CANNOT imagine what horrors it would be to do it all with helm or templating.

the current state of the art tool for configuration is CUE (https://cuelang.org/). FTFY. Gotta love these acronyms.
