The password_hash filter will generate a salt value if none is supplied. The character set used by Ansible (upper & lowercase letters, digits) did not match that used by libc crypt (upper & lowercase letters, digits, full stop, forward slash). This resulted in a slightly smaller key space, and hence hashes would be slightly easier to attack (e.g. by dictionary, brute force).
