Several of the warts in Terraform were fixed in 0.12.
While I think the HCL DSL was a mistake and prefer the CloudFormation YAML, CloudFormation has its share of warts as well, and the TF community has been doing better than CF in staying up-to-date with the AWS API updates - which reflects quite poorly on AWS actually.
> would not recommend to use terraform at all since you will run into warts and fundamental issues
It's not a good look to be employed by the 800 pound gorilla and bash your company's competitor without mentioning specifics.
