`template.json` Nesting Properties
I am in the process of developing a new system for Foundry VTT and I have found myself struggling to find the best way to organise some data. The system is broken into 3 categories of skills, Basic, Trained and Expert. I was able to find a nice way to separate them and have them appearing nicely in a nested sheet-tab, thanks to help in a previous post. My issue now is a couple skills are a base stat for other skills, e.g Diplomacy is the base skill for Barter, Persuade etc. Here is a snippet of the template.json: 
"dipl": {
            "value": 0,
            "bb": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "cd": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "dm": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "int": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "per": {
              "value": 0
            }
          },
"dipl": {
            "value": 0,
            "bb": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "cd": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "dm": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "int": {
              "value": 0
            },
            "per": {
              "value": 0
            }
          },
When I try and loop through the keys, I hit an error that it is not iterable, as would be expected as trying to iterate through an Object inside an Object just wouldn't work without a nested loop. But is this the best way to organise the data structure as my config and en pack now look like this and it feels wrong to me: 
OUTBREAK.skills = {
    label: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Label",
...
    trained: {
        label: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Label",
        bow: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Bow",
        calm: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Calm",
        dipl: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Dipl.Dipl",
        bb: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Dipl.BB",
        cd: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Dipl.Cd",
        dm: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Dipl.DM",
        int: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Dipl.Int",
        per: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Dipl.Per",
        dgtlsys: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.DgtlSys",

        swim: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Swim",
        throw: "OUTBREAK.Skills.Trained.Throw"
    },
...
