Given that it is commented on the same line, it shouldn't be
confusing.  The reason it is done this way is so that postinst
can update /etc/default/lxc-net without affect /etc/default/lxc,
and without overriding any admin-provided configuration.  There
are other ways we could do this, but this is one of the simplest
and most robust (in the face of esoteric package administration
in some setups) ways. 

Is there a particular workflow which this breaks for you?
