> CUE or any other configuration language is orthogonal to whether or not a meaningful declarative provider
100% agreement
What CUE potentially makes great is going from what the API spec has available to what we need by keeping the enrichments by us in the same space, so we merge or unify into a single space, without having to write code in the imperative sense. You get to stay in a logical space that will ensure what you write remains self consistent. It will catch the gaps and issues earlier.
I'm not aware of any config language or other technology that looks to make this processes as good as CUE can, except maybe sprinkling some of that magic LLM dust on the problem too, which CUE will help in double checking as well
