During the infra-deploy playbook, ansible connects to the bastion or launcher node. It's best that this be done with the user's default ssh configuration in lieu of the generated one, otherwise connections to the bastion could fail. Use ansible.builtin.ping to check liveness which is more thorough of a test. It will use the default ssh config, whereas wait_for will only attempt a tcp connection, which may fail if a user has a default proxy configured as required in their environment.
