For example there's cases where a vendor ships the OS pre-installed on
the device and they won't know what the user will want here, often you
also need to set the language/keyboard as well before creating
users/setting passwords.

I believe also in the RHEL case it has the ability for the user to
accept an agreement before they can create users/set passwords etc and
I'm not sure how that would integrate into the systemd variant.
