Hmm, the explanation makes sense, but seems like our installer automatically adds [1] an `iface INTERFACE inet manual` stanza for all "unused" interfaces? So users may run into this (admittedly minor) issue if they used interfaces that were already present at installation time for a fabric, and then remove that fabric.
