We should be careful when talking about "units" and "unit files". The latter should be the concept on disk, and the former, the loaded version of it. However, as a single unit file can result in multiple loaded units (think templates), and a units can also exist with no unit file at all (think .device units), we should be precise. As symlinks are created on unit files rather than units (as symlinks are an fs object, and unit files are too, but units are not), let's say so here.
