Could you give an example of why this is useful to unify?

For example: is there a scenario in which someone is using
systemd-networkd but then finds they need to do X, which they cant
essily do using systend but which nm support is better--- therefore if
they are using netplan they can simply install network-manager, change a
netplan setting and gain X with no need to understand the differences
between the network-manager and systemd configuration languages?

(or swapping the roles of NM and systemd-neyworkd, or using ifupdown99
instead)
