Addition by the additive inverse.

a/b is the unique solution x to a = bx, if a solution exists. This definition is used for integers, rationals, real and complex numbers.

Defining a/b as a * (1/b) makes sense if you're learning arithmetic, but logically it's more contrived as you then need to define 1/b as the unique solution x to bx = 1, if one exists, which is essentially the first definition.

I find it a little disturbing that YAML seems to be going nowhere, and appreciating JSON all the more, but it's still interesting to read

It's designed as a "data serialization language" but its primary use case seems to be a base syntax for a trillion different DSLs

That's quite the drawback. I'm not sure if I believe a large number of keywords would have a good effect on ergonomics
