Yes, I realize this. This is one of the issues with systemd in general,
it parallelizes stuff and causes these race conditions. The entire
network startup process should be single threaded (IMHO) to allow the
appropriate sequence of events to occur before stating that the network
is either up or down.

I reiterate my previous statements: systemd is a solution in search of a
problem. Parallelizing boot processes to speed things up is sorta silly.
Typically, booting a system is a sequence of operations that must be
performed in a specific order. A huge part of the complexity of systemd
(oneshots, forks, wait-for-this-or-that) is to try to get around its
attempts to parallelize these processes.

If you have to reboot so often that boot speed is an issue, your system
has other issues.
