I'm not really sure what devops-friendly means here.  I think my problem
-- the source of my puzzlement -- is that I can't see much significant
difference between slapd.conf and slapd.ldif other than details of the
syntax (which to my eyes is less weird in the latter case than the
former).

Or: what would I be losing if support for slapd.conf disappeared tomorrow?

The only thing that comes to mind is the ability to have comments in the configuration. Other than that, nothing. Even internally, slapd.conf is converted to a cn=config db by slapd. What cn=config does that slapd.conf doesn't do, is help ensure correctness in configurations.
