Unquoted strings are valid in yaml just like this format. There are at least 2 ways to specify a list of things. There are some super bizarre looking possible formats for lists of mapping types.

There are a number of others given the length of the spec. Yaml is a complicated beast that generally has more than one way to do any given thing
