Except that, as DW pointed out, this doesn't appear to demonstrate anything but your lack of attention to detail. To belabor the point, the Debian wiki for systemd-networkd, the service you recommend and use, (https://wiki.debian.org/SystemdNetworkd) *does*, on the contrary, specifically recommend a reboot after setting up a basic configuration (whether this is a somehow invalidating reminder of Microsoft Windows is left as the traditional exercise): Setting up Systemd-Networkd basic configuration ... I recommend a reboot at this point to remove the currently running network and to ensure that your network comes up properly. This is all it takes for a simple case. Good luck.
