For example, getty@.service is instantiated 6 times for getty@tty1.service, getty@tty2.service and so on, from a single service definition file. As are the fsck service or cryptsetup. Note that writing around in /usr outside of package installation is not acceptable, since we want to encourage usage of read-only /usr (and even /).
