If I may put words into the mouths of the systemd maintainers:

"None of your business. If you need the unit file(s) changed, you've 
been given the 'systemctl edit ...' command. If you touch the files 
directly, you're trying to do *our* job, and will be held liable to have 
acquired, and keep updated to, the required level of know-how."

(Note that, back when I had to try to get rid of the parameterless 
"--daemon" in the unit file, I found that the unit file would get 
overwritten with every update - unlike "normal" config files, where a 
new packaged version would be put into a *.rpmnew file when the update 
finds the current version manually changed.)
