Heureka! Ich hab's gefunden: Policy 9.3.3.1:

|An older practice, which should not be used, was to include a line
|like "DISABLED=yes" in the package’s "/etc/default" file.  The
|package’s init script would not start the service until the local
|system administrator changed this to "DISABLED=no", or similar.  The
|problem with this approach was that it hides from the init system
|whether or not the daemon should actually be started, which leads to
|inconsistent and confusing behavior: "service <package> start" could
|return success but not start the service; services with a dependency
|on this service will be started even though the service isn’t running;
|and init system status commands could incorrectly claim that the
|service was started.

Ist allerdings nur ein "should".
