In earlier versions of Terraform the result of terraform state show was in the pre-0.12 "flatmap" structure that was unable to reflect nested data structures. That was fixed in Terraform 0.12, but as a consequence this statement about the output being machine-parseable (which was debateable even in older versions) is incorrect. Fortunately, we now have "terraform show -json" to get output that is intentionally machine-parseable, so we'll recommend to use that instead here. The JSON output of that command is a superset of what's produced by "terraform state show", so should be usable to meet any use-case that might previously have been met by parsing the "terraform state show" output.
