Berry is a ultra-lightweight dynamically typed embedded scripting language
I've been thinking along these lines but more 'strongly validated' than statically typed in the sense that you'd be better off being able to load the entire config and then produce a list of problems (and should be able to offer good editor support if done correctly).
Though https://dhall-lang.org/ demonstrates that you can statically type quite a lot of configuration to great advantage, which appears to be programmatically embeddable in multiple languages per https://docs.dhall-lang.org/howtos/How-to-integrate-Dhall.ht...

What Is Wrong with TOML?
I agree, I quite like https://dhall-lang.org/ for that reason. It strikes a good balance between features and being a config language.
Maybe you'd like jsonnet: https://jsonnet.org/
I find it particularly useful for configurations that often have repeated boilerplate, like ansible playbooks or deploying a bunch of "similar-but" services to kubernetes (with https://tanka.dev).
Dhall is also quite interesting, with some tradeoffs: https://dhall-lang.org/
A few years ago I did a small comparison by re-implementing one of my simpler ansible playbooks: https://github.com/retzkek/ansible-dhall-jsonnet

Domain Modelling in the Cloud & AWS CDK
I think 3 is the biggest take away for me. I spent way too much time trying to utilize Dhall to create a domain specific language for each project, and translate that to CloudFormation. Instead of thinking in Lambdas and Step Functions, you would use the language of the problem we’re trying to solve; the business of getting a Client’s(1) Accounts(2) into a bunch of PDF Financial Statements(3) that we could then put into a zip file called a StatementsZIP(4) and deliver to a customer’s FTP server.

Rethinking Infrastructure as Code from Scratch
Well, it depends on the language. Some are quite good at restricting programs so that it is not possible to execute arbitrary code.
Take a look at https://propellor.branchable.com to see how Haskell might be used.
Idris might be a good candidate as well.
https://dhall-lang.org is quite interesting for these purposes as well (although it is not general purpose)

Keeping Open Source Open: Rocky Linux
Not for Nix, it depends entirely on functional concepts. There’s also the Dhall config language, which could do what Nix does. Not sure if that’s any better for you but maybe worth checking out.
