Thank you! There are a few reasons that I use inline fields vs yaml.
- A link in yaml doesn’t show as a backlink.
- If you rename a page you have linked in yaml the link doesn’t auto update like it will in the page.
- yaml doesn’t allow for linking something like [[@person]] and this is how all of my people pages are titled.
- I like to write inline as I find it much more natural and can give me more context.
- Fields inline seem to be much more forgiving as far as syntax goes vs yaml. You can use normal lists, format with markdown, etc. yaml seems fragile to me. Hope that helps!
