Thank you for the insight on this! I fully accept that it’s relevant in some industries, and I don’t hate the idea. It’s just not the implementation I would have hoped for If time permits I might try to implement a declarative layer on top of better_launch to see how it feels. I’m also not sure if python/xml/yaml are the right choice for this, so I might explore some other options.
The gap better_launch is trying to fill is focused on usability, but it also comes with some benefits around predictability and maintainability.
