That's quite silly, I am not indeed interested in what the
systemd-folks have decide to throw in the face of their users, but I
guess that nothing prevents you from remounting /etc rw, or maybe
there is also a way of telling systemd that you'd prefer to have /etc
mounted always rw? Another option would be to not have a separate
/etc.

What would be quite dangerous is having systemd decide autonomously
whether a certain partition should be mounted in ro or not, or worse,
forcing the users to have /etc in a separate partiton, so that systemd
can decide to mount it ro. Again, useless complications to solve
non-existing problems in the most stupid way possible...
