XML is better than YAML
I find “self-documentation” often doesn’t actually work. It’s great in theory, but often falls down, in practice.
I often need to preface my config stuff with fairly substantial comment blocks that discuss the reasoning behind the configuration.
Here’s an example: https://github.com/LittleGreenViper/LGV_MeetingServer/blob/m...

That's a Lot of YAML
I think JSON5 is fairly close to this: https://json5.org
I reckon the only thing it's missing to be truly accessible to non-techies is that string values still need to be quoted, i.e. you can't have:
key: this is my value
(I'm definitely not saying it would be a good idea to allow quotes to be dropped, just that that's the only potential stumbling block I see for non-techies.)

XML is better than YAML
I believe that's JSON5.

It's my preferred configuration file format, it fixes all the problems I have with JSON (trailing commas, comments) without turning it into a mess full of gotchas like YAML.

I would like to see mention of JSON5 which is 11 years its elder. For comments in JSON, JSON5 is a good starting point.
