What an appallingly bad design. Now we have configuration files in multiple places, and to understand the configuration a human has to look in all those places and dig through bad documentation to figure out which one is actually being used. And why exactly aren't the CONFIGURATION files for systemd sitting in /etc in the first place?
Well, it depends on the POV - personally I like the new design. A file in /etc means I modified something (and I still have the original file in /lib for comparison), and a file in /lib means it's the default file as shipped with the distribution. The "traditional" way with everything in /etc means I have to use rpm -V to detect changes, and usually don't have a copy of the original file around. (And BTW, I'm not the biggest fan of systemd, but I like this detail.)
I'm going to leave this closed because it's hopeless to argue. But it wouldn't earn a passing grade in one of my classes.
