Looking at the comparison examples between TOML and YAML/NestedText, I fail to see how anyone can look at the YAML/NestedText and think "yeah, this is way easier to read and reason about than TOML".

I'm not even a Rust person. I've never worked in Rust in my life, so there is no "preference bias" in my comparing the two. I just don't find YAML, or this "improvement" as "human-readable" as people make out to be.



I'm also confused. The TOML example is way easier for me to understand. It's clearly very subjective.
