this indeed fails in helm 3.9.0 but works on helm 3.10.0 and newer. The reason is that helm 3.9.0 didn't short-circuit expressions but release 3.10.0 finally introduced this (in 2022). If you can upgrade to a newer helm, then you should be ok, alternatively you can specify this in your values

certificates:
  operator: {}
