Do people dislike TOML only because it looks like a Windows INI file? I think it’s nice. Rust chose it in keeping with their penchant for sanity most of the time.
I would prefer if logically nested blocks could also be phyisically nested (and indented), so you can have a full tree structure. If you're describing something that can have variable levels of nesting (think folders) then it can sometimes make the format easier to understand.
I like YAML for reading and TOML is entirely worse for reading (still million times better than JSON tho), and as the use cases are mostly read, rarely written, and if written they are code-generated (using configuration management), YAML fits better.
