expensive piece-of-shit (enterprise) systems, since they sometimes explode if your server changes interface names.
At no time in the past 25 years with Medium Iron have I seen something blow up on a reboot because an interface comes up late. We'd solved the issue of unreliable init order in 1998 - RH6? Zoot? Compaq, Supermicro, even embedded stuff on was-shit/still-shit gigabyte mobos. /etc/udev/rules.d handled this reliably, consistently and perfectly. Fight me.
