systemd-networkd also has the big advantage in using the same config for all distributions. No weird Debian or Redhat config pain.

And that’s why Canonical came up with Netplan because otherwise things would get boring.

Yes, but then NetworkManger will override Netplan sometimes but not others. There is a setting in one of the buried config files to configure this behavior, but it doesn't always work depending on how NetworkManager is feeling that day.

I'm not keen on the network config being scattered across a dozen tiny files. It makes it hard to see what's going on, or to spot a configuration error.
