Correct.

(Though unrelated to the specific issue at hand: I'd actually be open to
extend "systemctl preset" so that when called without arguments will
actually operate on all units on the system and bring them in line with
the preset settings shipped by upstream. Or with other words this would
then be "unfuck my system" call, that would undo all user configuration
in /etc/systemd/system).
