Not in this case. /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/*.conf is a mechanism for
packagers to provide configuration snippets without creating conflicts. The
administrator should simply modify /etc/systemd/logind.conf. The situation for
those configuration files is different than for unit files because by default
no configuration is required and there's no downside to using
/etc/systemd/logind.conf directly.

I'll update the comment to deemphasize those directories.
