Except that, as DW pointed out, this doesn't appear to demonstrate
anything but your lack of attention to detail.

To belabor the point, the Debian wiki for systemd-networkd, the service
you recommend and use, (https://wiki.debian.org/SystemdNetworkd) *does*,
on the contrary, specifically recommend a reboot after setting up a
basic configuration (whether this is a somehow invalidating reminder of
Microsoft Windows is left as the traditional exercise):

 Setting up Systemd-Networkd
 basic configuration
 
 ...

 I recommend a reboot at this point to remove the currently running
 network and to ensure that your network comes up properly.

 This is all it takes for a simple case.

Good luck.
