That's most probably another workaround to avoid systemd freezing on
boot... And even if the systemd-nonsense would not be involved in
this, I still don't want a DNS set by default during installation and
I don't want anybody to force me doing that... That's why users chose
Debian, once upon a time: because it didn't come with any pre-packed
policy to constrain whatever use you would like to make of the
system. But apparently time is now flying faster, and things are
changing more quickly, and always in the same direction: just for the
bad.

I couldn't ever imagine that anybody would be able to trash Debian in
such a deliberate and lighthearted way, and in such a short timeframe
:(
