It is a creative process, for sure, but that's just one reason I do it. Another reason is just getting lost in it, forgetting about everything else and just "being in it".
The same can be said about a lot of other hobbies, regardless of what kind of process it might or might not be. Just doing it and being in it - reading and getting lost in a book, watching a movie and getting lost in it, going on a hike and getting lost in the woods (metaphorically, not actually lost, lol), writing code and getting lost in it, etc..
Ansible playbooks can be the same way! The point of hobbies for many people is just because they like to do it, nothing more, nothing less. There may also be other reasons, such as the creativity for me, but there are also times when I'm not feeling super creative and my set will just be an un-mixed playlist of music that I just want to get lost in in that moment... if that makes sense.
Some people might just like losing themselves in an Ansible playbook, or think they're fun for fun's sake or whatever reason. :)
