In EL Distributions, it is the default since major version 7.
Result
As a consequence of this unsupported setting, if this role is applied to Debian 10 installations, the network connectivity can be lost after reboot. (I didn't test it)
Suggestion
So I suggest to change this default to grub_disable_network_predictable_interface_names: False
For backwards compatibility, we should set the old default on Debian <=9 to "True". Because there are still a lot of EL 7 installations running out there with this setting, I guess we can more safely introduce this setting starting with EL = 8.
Please add your feedback, if this change of this settings makes sense and if so, what needs to be done to roll it out safely.

Problem
Starting with Debian 10 this setting:

is not supported anymore and needs to be removed before upgrading from Debian 9(stretch) to 10 (buster). See here: https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#migrate-interface-names
