Thank you for the feedback. Ultimately it is down to your requirements, Azure CLI may be the best option in your case, but you also mentioned the weak points: it is not cloud-agnostic, does not support plan (what/if) and clean up of resources (and tracking of changes when a parameter is not specified), which can be critical features for some projects. Also it is imperative and it requires more code (that can get ugly in Bash) if you want to parallelize and handle dependencies or errors. To your point I agree that is quite succinct, but I would not recommend it in most of the cases.
