I understand you're making a lot of good points; However, Jinja templating happens "before" it becomes YAML.
It's not "injected" into the YAML.m
I get people have criticisms; But it's not like these things are very difficult to overcome. Outside of creating a DSL, what could actually be different?
It sounds like your complaints are more to do with Jinja + YAML and Ansible was unfortunately a victim of some of those issues?
While a lot of negatives are pointed out about the marriage between the two, there are still at least some positives I believe.
Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with the tool outside of using it.
