Why is it not starting at boot ?
I'd take a look at what NetworkManager thinks about it:
nmicli connection show eth0 | grep autoconnect:
If it's not set to 'yes', then you'll want to do so:
nmcli connection modify eth0 connection.autoconnect yes
As to the 'why,' I don't know. Here's the official explanation:
