But yeah if you need to apply that class to the node with a different value for that param, it can't also get applied from your default profile. Having to add it to all of the roles is a bit of a pain too. I've been there. Then the concern is someone leaving it out accidentally. I like the suggesting of the conditional in the default profile best. It's maybe not as clean as Hiera but it's less messy than the alternatives I think, and it should be very visible there.
