SaltStack uses YAML for their tools, too. I personally can empathize
with them (as a user of configuration management) about this as writing
JSON would be nightmare with all the quoting, commas, curly braces etc.
But that's my own preference maybe.
(Btw. does "run off" mean like or avoid? At least my dictionaries tend
to the latter.)

From my day-to-day work I can tell, the date(time) type is the only
missing piece of JSON to make it perfect for business applications
(besides, maybe, a "currency" type).
