I can’t answer that, but I can point out that YANG is easily extended by 
representation-level attributes:

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.
