The problem is that when: "{{ something == 'yes' and myvar }}" yields the
desired result e.g.:
ansible-playbook play.yml -c local -i 127.0.0.1, -e myvar=true -e
something="yes"
PLAY [do stuff with curlies]
***************************************************
changed: [127.0.0.1]
I will go ahead and use "myvar | bool" everywhere as that too works.
