When the corresponding alternatives shall always be defined the
defaults can't hurt, e.g.

 - set_fact:
     subnet: '{{ (project == project_bake)|
                  ternary(subnet_bake|default(None),
                          determined_subnet|default(None) }}'

In this case test sanity first

 - fail:
     msg: Variable undefined
   when: ((project == project_bake) and (subnet_bake is undefined)) or
         ((project != project_bake) and (determined_subnet is
         undefined))
