No. A unit file should only be duplicated in dracut if there's no other way. We want less divergence from the real system, not more. There's nothing initrd-specific in the unit file you propose, hence it should just be copied from the system.

Comment 3 Vladis Dronov 2023-05-17 11:01:58 UTC

i was not sure if there's some specific requirements/restrictions for unit files for initrd/dracut. 
if there's none, then great, please, copy it from the system.
