I suspect that won't work for me:

$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

$ ls -l interfaces.d
total 0

I didn't know what I was doing when I set this machine up & used the
GUI interface to network manager to configure a static ipv4 address.
Or at least I think it's network manager .. ps shows it as
/usr/bin/nm-connection-editor

Thanks
