Hello,

I've noticed the files shipped in systemd/sysctl.d are prefixed 50, e.g.
50-default.conf and 50-pid-max.conf.  Nowadays, these are typically installed
by distributions to /usr/lib.  However, sysctl.d(5) notes:

    It is recommended to use the range 10-40 for configuration files in /usr/
    and the range 60-90 for configuration files in /etc/ and /run/, to make sure
    that local and transient configuration files will always take priority over
    configuration files shipped by the OS vendor.

Is it intentional that systemd ships such a high prefix? The existing
arrangement means OS vendors only have 51-59 to play with if they are to be sure
their overrides are applied.

Kind regards,
Alex
