Do either of you have a better suggestion?

If most people would have the same default yaml file copy-pasted into a thousand places, it could be easily replaced with just:

```

gating: default

```

And allow people to override the default policy (with the current syntax or hopefully something more readable) only when they really have some specific needs. This will also help in future when the defaults need to be changed.

More preset values can be defined subsequently, e.g.:

gating: default/minimal/custom/disabled

etc.
