When I posted earlier I missed something.

Yes, if you remove network-scripts you can still run ifup/ifdown.  What will 
happen is
that that appropriate /etc/alternatives will be created.  So, for example, 
ifdown will
point to /usr/libexec/nm-ifdown.  (NetworkManager-ifdown).

And if you look at that you'd see.

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ cat /usr/libexec/nm-ifdown
#!/usr/bin/sh
nmcli connection load "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-$1" &&
exec nmcli connection down filename "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-$1"

I've just become used to using "nmcli".  Just like I've become used to using 
"ip" instead
of "ipconfig".

Thanks for making me take a deeper look.
