That playbook tells ansible to create the template on the 'all' group

That's what it's trying to do.

The moment I read this I realized my mistake. You're absolutely
right! I had stupidly been thinking that this would happen on
the control machine. Maximum mea culpa. Changing 'all' to
'localhost' fixes the problem and lets me test the template.
This was driving me crazy.

for your use case, just make 2 roles: ntp_server and ntp_client, and
apply them to groups as required.

The issue I was trying to address in my posting is how to
recognize which role to apply to a host. I think my basic
idea is sound. All I have to do is avoid making more stupid
mistakes.

Thank you *very* much!
