I know I can define the variable previous to this, but I am wondering if I can combine setting a variable with a default value within set_fact. If possible, I wonder if my syntax is wrong (likely)? I can't seem to find much documentation on this. If you have a link to this answer in the docs, I would like to review it, but apparently I am not using the right keywords
in my search.

Basically, I wish to have the handler_name set to Networking unless my
major version is 8.  If that is the case then I want it set to: Network
Manager

- set_fact:
    handler_name: "{{ 'Network Manager' | default('Networking') }} "
  when: ansible_distribution_major_version == 8

- set_fact:
handler_name: "{{ 'Network Manager' if ansible_distribution_major_version == 8 else 'Networking' }}"

or

- set_fact:
handler_name: "{{ (ansible_distribution_major_version == 8) | ternary('Network Manager', ''Networking') }}"


Which one to use comes down to personal preference.
