We discussed this idea internally as well, and we came up with the following 
reasons to not go further with it:

- why remove something we already have? there is no harm in keeping it
- ansible is problematic on rhel6 due to python version
- --remediate would stop working
- bash is mentioned in the XCCDF spec, ansible @system is something we made up
- in RHEL8 we could have ansible as default system for remediation

Psh.... what other Linux distros? =P

You're totally right. And that definitely means we need to continue
carrying bash remediations.
