but I wish podlet could handle translating external networks. Right now, it just fails, and needs manual intervention. Also, afaik, there’s no way to preserve comments when translating.

Yeah, valid, it always needs an eye on the output, but it gets you at least 90+% of the way, often 100%.

I like that the syntax is systemd derived, YMMV I guess.

I don't "like" it over YAML, but I like that I can use systemd specifiers.
