Well, I could, perhaps, test that.However, /usr/share/doc/initscripts/sysconfig.txt claims that the IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL setting is used only with BOOTPROTO=dhcp, and these interfaces are all static IP addresses, so I wouldn't expect that any difference would result from this.
Still, it's possible that NM hijacked something that's documented to be used only with DHCP, and recycled it for something completely unrelated. It's possible, I guess. But, I've already screwed around with this for much, much longer than I really wanted. There's definitely a breakdown somewhere, with either systemd or networkmanager, when it comes to deliver what network- online.target promised to deliver. If someone who's more knowledgeable with these packages can figure out the fail, and a tentative fix is proposed, I'll be interested in poking at it with a stick, try to test it, and see if it works.
But it looks to me like this simply cannot be made to work, in the current state of the world and changing random options in random configuration files will not be very productive. For now, the most productive path forward is to use a hacky workaround script that does make it possible to actually start services that require a working IP address only after an IP address is, well, actually working.
