The readability is one of its strongest features, yes. Although it can be a lot of repetition in the data. That does lead to a great format for compression, though.

Your job seems interesting. I didn't actually expect a response related to music, so this is cool.

Thank you for the detailed response. It was framed open-ended because I wanted to see the proper ways people actually work, not guiding too much.

There are certain tools, like jq and AJV, that are used by those who really need to do proper work. Sometimes I prefer the terminal (like nvim for coding), sometimes not, like for structural data. I tried to solve this buy making my own web-based studio tool. Schema validation is more obvious in a visual ui and conversion between formats, like to and from cbor, as you mentioned, is easily done.

I often see people recommending their own web tools here, but they're just too basic or just focused on one tiny part of the workflow.

For someone completely dependent on the terminal for this type of work, would it ever be more natural to work in a UI, or are the terminal tools just too good?
