I agree. I'm sorely tempted to introduce Dhall or CUE at work, but it might be a bit of leap for colleagues.

I wrote a prototype thing that was like Troposphere but better (everything was generated from CloudFormation spec JSON files, no stitching together things by string IDs, etc). Also unlike CDK, there was no inheritance (I haven't used CDK that much, but inheritance-based systems seem to be universally awful, so I'm skeptical). It can be pretty nice.
