That is an annoyingly obscure detail, I think the wrong decision was made there. Hopefully it gets reversed.

Personally I really like the array of tables syntax. It is a little unintuitive but it's not difficult to remember. It's useful for fulfilling the OP's "No document closing necessary, so appending is trivial" requirement.

And if you don't want to use it, you can always use inline tables in an array, just like JSON.
