Thanks for asking me and these snippets help you understand how you get started with ansible to build your service mesh, Istio. If you want to follow up for hands-on stuff, here are more details: https://istio.io/docs/setup/kubernetes/ansible-install/

Before Istio service mesh, developers have to implement non-functional capabilities like client load balancing, service discovery, service registry, tracing, etc. on Spring Boot, Netflix OSS stuff. After Istio, envoy sidecar container(aka a dedicated infrastructure) will address those of capabilities which means the developers are now focusing on implementation of business logic. Hopefully, it makes you clarify the paragraph.
