That's indeed a tough problem. The upstream recommendation is, to run "systemctl preset" during the initial installation. If there are changes to the default in the unit files, those changes are *not* applied on package upgrades. I don't think that's a particularly compelling solution. In Debian, we introduced a helper called i-s-h [1], which keeps some additional state and tries to apply such changes on updates.
