You are not Debian, who provides the files that go in /lib/systemd. You are the user, who provides the files that go in /etc/systemd. The user, a.k.a. the administrator. When you create a new unit for your system and want systemd to manage it, you put it in /etc/systemd. This is also documented at <https://wiki.debian.org/systemd/Services>. Maybe I need to repeat the /etc part a few more times? Yeah, probably couldn't hurt. In addition, as long as I'm writing this, if you want to *modify* one of the services provided by Debian, you do it by placing files in /etc/systemd. That part is documented at <https://wiki.debian.org/systemd>. The files in /etc/systemd take priority over the files in /lib/systemd. The administrator always has priority over the operating system's defaults. It's *your* computer.
