I wouldn't think of it for generating configuration. The example given implies they use it for fuzzing program inputs. It's purpose in the article is simple: generate a CSV with two columns and floats.

However, a DSL could be made to do anything. Generate particular kinds of PDFs, Excel files, intentionally incorrect CSV/TSV files, zipbombs, and etc.

All that is required is to wire it up in the Go side of things and then write a script to make use of it.
