I can’t answer that, but I can point out that YANG is easily extended by representation-level attributes: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-petrov-t2trg-youpi-01 Of course, there is also CDDL (https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8610.html). Over in ASDF, we are also discussing “mapping files” for SDF as a way to bind the abstract data model into something more concrete. Finally, there is a non-WG mailing list for formal description techniques, f...@ietf.org.
