So, I wonder why not just a Dockerfile instead of writing a playbook

One of the maintainers commented in a sibling comment to yours that they use the same ansible to build VM images, so that was more work.

Well, if you use Dockerfiles then of course you won't see a command used mostly by alternative build processes, but that's hardly a meaningful objection.
