After seeing yet another YAML dialect for controlling systems, I think we need a hierarchy of YAML dialect expressiveness. (1) Has its own variable binding system. (2) Supports if statements. (3) Supports loops. (4) Supports function definition. 2 seems to be the most common, but I've seen all of 1-3. Does level 4 exist in the wild yet?

Amazon &c are moving to ever faster delivery, overlooking the importance of controlling *when* delivery happens. It should fit my schedule.
