So you say the augmenting module modifies how the augmented module
works. This sounds like a side effect, that will only be understood by
gurus.

I don't think it is correct to say that they don't have effect. As
Jernej pointed out, augmentations may add nodes to the case, so that
if the augmented node is created, the original leaf's default value is
in effect.

Sorry :-) couldn't resist.
But seriously, one reason we wanted to design a new modeling language
instead of reusing e.g. XSD was because XSD is too complicated, and
then
we get embedded choice ?
I think embedded choices were in YANG 1 and hence this is not a new
issue specific to YANG 1.1. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I am personally fine with embedded choices if the semantics are well
defined so that implementations interpret them the same way. Have you
tested different tools?

PS: It is possible to write obfuscated code in almost all languages; I
think the question is more whether the regular common use of the
language is intuitive. A good language IMHO follows a set of
simple general rules; attempts to rule out constructions that some
people find obscure can turn a set of simple general rules into a
complicated collection of special case constructions that make
language maintenance and implementation a nightmare.
