I believe that this is because *with_items* will always show you the item
being used for the task, as well as the output of the task using that item.
That's why you see both the *item* and *msg* fields in the JSON. Not sure
how to tell Ansible to NOT output the *item* part of a *with_items* task.
In your *with_items*, you could always *set_fact* with just the *stdout*,
and then loop again over just those facts.
