Sorry, if my wording was not precise enough. With "products that usually..." I
meant stuff like Kubic that according to Thorsten does absolutely not work with
unsynchronised time. For such special-purpose products that have servces
enabled by default which depend on precise time, I suggest to enable
chrony-wait by default. But for the multi-purpose products you listed we should
disable it by default for now and leave enabling up to the admins that install
services that need it, as we had it before the change that broke booting on
unnetworked laptops.

I totally agree and that's nothing I ever asked for.
