Ansible - parse values from multiple lists in loop

Question

So I have been scratching my head and I think the solution is easy but can not see the light :-)

I have this code which reads the registry and gets the MSSQL names:

- name: check for instances
   win_reg_stat:
     path: HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server
   register: instance_output

I then get the services running for them:

- name: get the services
   ansible.windows.win_service_info:
     name: MSSQL*
   register: service_output
   failed_when: service_output is not defined

in my debug i am joining the 2 sets:

- name: debug
   debug: 
     msg:
       - "{{ item }}"
   loop:
     - "{{ instance_output.properties.InstalledInstances.value | zip (service_output| json_query('services[*].start_mode')) | list }}"

and i get the data:

[
   [
     "db1",
     "manual"
   ],
   [
     "db2",
     "auto"
   ],
   [
     "db3",
     "disabled"
   ]
 ]

The number of dbs can be anything, so I can not use item.0, item.1, and item.2

My question is this ... how can set up a when clause where start_mode is not disabled?

I have tried with_items, however I am using ansible 2.15.3 so I know sooner or later with_items will not work...

I have tried flatten,

but I am essentially trying to get the return of db1 and db2 to continue the next part of the tasks.

Here is a snippet of one service_output
