Exactly why I'm asking here :)

I want to present a style that I use and like, but make sure to not say 
"this is the Ansible way", but rather, "here are the common ways tasks are 
written... I prefer *this* style (whatever it turns out to be... I'm still 
not completely sold on any one way as a general rule) for reasons X, Y, and 
Z, but if you find that one of these other methods works better for you or 
your team, please use it. The important thing is to use a consistent style 
that helps you be productive and write effective playbooks...

Something along those lines, but basically, since there is no official 
style guide for Ansible (just examples in docs and the examples repos), and 
since I see about a hundred different styles in the wild, I want to be 
comprehensive but not lead people astray.
