Definitely not just an assumption, that’s one concrete reason among others.
For example, I have a package that runs `systemctl mask <service>` in its
postinst script of a package getting installed to rootfs during the 
rootfs_install
task. When the image postprocessing runs `systemctl preset ....` , it fails
because it tries to enable that masked service.

Thanks,
