For instanced services "enable" and "disable" should be called for the
templates, not the instances. i.e. "systemctl disable getty at .service",
which will remove all gettys however.

Note that "systemctl enable" is useful for enabling the *suggested*
installation only. And the suggested installation of "getty at .service" is
to create 6 instances...

This should now happen automatically and work reliably.
