Having to template one .conf file couples not necessarily related config
modules together and it's *a lot* more performant to conditionally
install and remove config snippets in .d/ than to expand a template.

The separation matters when separate people write separate configuration
modules and the performance matters when deciding on frequency of config
runs.
