The description of Alias= wasn't incorrect, but it sounded like Alias= creates a different type of dependency, while it's just a glorified way to create symlinks. Also recommend 'preset' in addition to 'enable'. Describe .wants/.requires dirs as equals, without implying that the [Install] section can only be used for .wants. The text was partially out of date (systemd-networkd.service now creates as alias in /etc, not /usr/lib, let's just not say anything about the full path).
