I'm not saying YAML is perfect or terrible (just like the author), however most of the examples the author gives are going to be the same for any language attempting to implicitly type values.
I think maybe YAML just went a bit too far: because everyone hates defining key names with quotes when it's unnecessary 99% of the time, but it would have been enough to relax that rather than go all the way to suggesting relaxing all quotes and then attempting to infer value types.
