Thank you so much for your reply Mathias.

Version:
me@host ~> ansible --version                                               
   2
ansible 2.4.0
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = [u'/home/me/.ansible/plugins/modules', u
'/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
  ansible python module location = /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible
  executable location = /usr/bin/ansible
  python version = 2.7.13 (default, Feb 11 2017, 12:22:40) [GCC 6.3.1 
20170109]

I just tried your example playbook in my computer and got:
me@host ~/Ansible> cat /etc/os-release 
NAME="Arch Linux"
PRETTY_NAME="Arch Linux"
ID=arch
ID_LIKE=archlinux
ANSI_COLOR="0;36"
HOME_URL="https://www.archlinux.org/";
SUPPORT_URL="https://bbs.archlinux.org/";
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.archlinux.org/";

me@host ~/Ansible> ansible-playbook arch-test.yml | grep ansible_os
            "ansible_os_family": "Arch Linux", 
        "ansible_os_family": "Arch Linux", 
                    "ansible_os_family": "Arch Linux", 
                "ansible_os_family": "Arch Linux",

Is version 2.4.0 to blame here?
