the annotation in question `aws-load-balancer-internal`, true should be wrapped in quotes

```
Diagnostics:
  kubernetes:core:Service: XXXXXXX
    error: Plan apply failed: 1 error occurred:
    
    * unrecognized type: string
```

```
    metadata: {
      name: name,
      annotations: {
        "<http://external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/hostname|external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/hostname>": `XXXXXXXXX`,
        "<http://service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-internal|service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-internal>": true
    },
```

why should the annotation be wrapped in additional quotes??

oh nvm, you are referring to the `true` value, got it
