This is why a survey in programming languages is beneficial. You want a variety to fill in the gaps and this increases capacity to learn new ones but you are also easily able to identify short comings and foot guns where people who are siloed to a single language could never be aware of which leads to instances of NIH syndrome like we've seen in Python & Go.

You are likely already aware of this, but for other readers, you actually have to use Pulumi if you want native language feature support.

I agree CDK for TF can be better than HCL, but it is still more like a template preprocessing utility for Terraform and thus still carries the limitations of Terraform.

Great start! I'd like this even more if you dropped the python-style f-strings for a JavaScript or HCL flavor instead.

You noted at the bottom that RCL type system may take the path of TypeScript. This is brilliant idea because structural type systems match perfectly with a configuration language.
