It's also an observed factual reality that there were many terrible software development trends: XML everywhere, SOAP, microservices architectures (even if they do not apply), YAML in every config file, etc.
Every specialization has those trends, which are often copied without analysis.
I don't have any problem with questioning those trends. However, criticizing that YAML may not be the best way to build a DSL is not the same as saying that all engineers don't care about systems architecture and only use the latest framework.
