+    #   So we cannot rely on Ansible to (re)create the helm chart values file
+    # - Python's yaml interpreter sees strings with a value of `y` as short for `yes` or `true`, even when that string is a key name.
+    #   So we cannot use a straightforward yaml document as input for the Ansible helm module (which is written in Python)
+    #
+    # Lets explain the following workaround steps:
+    # - First we convert the dictionary to a json-object (through Ansible), so that yq can read it
+    # - Second we convert the json-object in its entirety to yaml (through yq), so that yq can actually manipulate it.
+    # - Finally, we take one specific subkey's contents (list of dictionaries) and iterate over each with the following steps (with `map`):
+    #   - Convert the dictionary to json with `tojson`
