Jsonnet solves a different problem though.

Need to configure 5 services with hundreds of replicas in 7 data centers? Some values depend on the service, some on the data center and some on the combination thereof? Maybe also overrides for a bunch of problemstic machines?

And you also want a manageable config language which doesn't turn into a full blown Turing tar pit?

Then jsonnet is for you.

So it's not entirely fair to compare it in the "pleasant syntax" contest. It's like putting a Unimog into a ranking of city cars.
