# 4. Improve Ansible support in conditionals
+# Two product-gating idioms are used in the shared rule templates:
+# - list membership: {% if product in [..., "rhel9"] %}
+# - equality: {% if product == "rhel9" %}
+# The list form is rewritten below. The equality form is NOT a substring of
+# the list form, so it must be handled separately, otherwise almalinux9
+# silently falls through to the generic `else` branch of those rules (e.g.
+# configure_custom_crypto_policy_cis drops NO-SSHWEAKCIPHERS/NO-SSHWEAKMACS/
+# NO-WEAKMAC/NO-RPMSHA1, weakening the CIS crypto remediation vs the rhel9 base).
