I was thinking more in the case where a service starts slow because a packet on the network causes something else to start at the same time. As you say, this shouldn't be a problem on localhost, and it seems trivial to bind .socket units to localhost only. It also seems trivial to disable socket activation entirely, so it looks like my fears were unfounded.
