    yamllint, as the name suggests, is a linter for YAML files. It checks syntax validity, as well as looking for more-complex errors like key repetition and cosmetic problems such as line length, trailing spaces, indentation etc. This one was indly recommended by yankdevil.

    StrictYAML removes features that might be useful for some usecases, such as Node anchors+Refs and Flow Style.

    I don't think the cost of an additional standard is worth it in this case.

    While YAML has issues, they aren't much of problem if you use a linter, such as yamllint [1].
