I feel that Yaml sucks. I understand the need for such markup language but I think it sucks. Somehow it's clunky to use. Can you explain why?

Yes, they could've just used JSON. Totally pointless waste of time.

JSON does lack comments. And numbers that are not 64 floats.

There's a lot of JSON parsers that don't mind to see comments there, just ignore them. And there's also the "_comment" / "$comment" thing.
