I personally consider /etc/default/$foo as a (Debian specific) sysvinit
anachronism and prefer if this is only used by the SysV init script.

systemd provides a native mechanism to extend or override parts of a
service, called systemd drop-in files [1], which is the preferred way if
you want to customize the service.

If you want to be nice to your users, you can add a note to
/etc/default/consolation that this file is SysV init specific.

Regards,
Michael
