The first problem here is not about sets or unions or anything.

The issue is with_items wants a single list to walk over, not a list of two
lists.

So

with_items:  variable_ame

works

as does

with_items:
   - dog
   - cat
   - fish

With hard coded strings

But if you want to walk two lists, that's "with_nested".

Here, though you do want to add them together.

I just wanted to mention why you were seeing "groups["A"]" literally in the
first logfile above.
