I'm curious why you recommend this? I'd argue the opposite. With the declarative nature of Terraform, you can know exactly which part of your infrastructure is going to change before you actually apply it. With Ansible, this information is a bit more opaque. You basically just run the playbook and pray it goes as planned and things haven't drifted too much.
