Perhaps a question from a poor (Ansible-)uninitiated: What do you mean by "legacy" in this context?
Ansible really wants devs to package things in collections, but the standalone role format has its use cases, and doesn't seem to be going away.

We want to use Ansible as a means to establish specifically „Supported Fedora Server Edition Services". Therefore, support for Debian/Ubuntu etc. is not necessarily important.
Much more important is a very good support of the "Fedora way" of organizing the distribution and configuration. In particular, this means good coordination with the pre-configuration that our packers deliver with the packages.
In many cases, the maintainers of the Linux System Roles are also the maintainers of the underlying package in Fedora/EL.

Building our work on something we already distribute in Fedora seems attractive to me, if only to increase Fedora's internal consistency.
The question is rather what we are missing as a consequence.
Right. I would really like to know what are the gaps.
