I'm almost 100% sure that should be all lower-case, if you expect
it to do anything. The file it's overriding is 99-default.link
(lower-case).

It's going to use the 99-default.link file because you didn't actually
override it. But since you're mapping explicitly on the MAC address of
the interface, it doesn't really matter.
