Its more like an alternative to scripts generating configuration from templates. they claim that this is better because you cant for example write an infinite loop ruining the script.

Is it a real problem though? If your config generator is complex enough to hide an infinite loop, you probably should be relieved every time it fails obviously and doesn't generate wrong config instead.
