I just added debug to the variable:
<!-- FCC: {{ foundQueuesCount }}
{{ foundQueuesCount | type_debug }} -->
and got this:
<!-- FCC: 0
AnsibleUnsafeText -->
<!-- inside queue greater than 1 -->
Are all variables passed to by Ansible to Jinja as text? If so, I guess I
need to cast them to their proper type within the Jinja template?
