Occam's Razor at it's finest. I'm not trying to screw others over. I just want to not write sometimes.

It's readable, it's easy, it gets the job done.

I don't think that's necessarily lazy, it's just efficient

I don't agree with "readable," though. For a simple set of key-values, yes. Once you get into complicated structures, other file formats express the semantics much better.

> It's readable, it's easy

That's what I am saying about my ruby codes as well. Still my boss wanted proper commit messages

Something has gone awry if the config files have a readability and difficulty analogous to the history of the codebase.
