Interesting example. For context, I have only experience with Azure Bicep so "no state" is my default assumption on IAC languages.
Do you in practice really use random names? In my experience, I'd just use a loop vm01...vm10 for the names and the passwords aren't needed to identify an instance after the deployment so here randomness isn't an issue.
