Maybe those are the reasons why JSON and XML survived: they’re stable. YAML tried to be nicer for humans and instead created a format where indentation errors silently rewrite intent.
Complete and utter nonsense. Xml is harder to author, but it's far superior by an order of several magnitudes due to its strict conformance and well-defined standards
