It's not really anachronistic. It's just that there is an enormous amount of
history behind the networking stack and OpenIndiana is the kind of operating
system distribution where users appreciate "old conventions" for configuring
the network.
I appreciate the attempt (and necessity) in Illumos/OI for retaining backward
compatibility with the network configuration scripts and methods of the past ...
In the case of the route:default service the manifest still has :
$ grep enable /lib/svc/manifest/network/routing/route.xml
<instance name='default' enabled='false' >
When I attempted to reproduce the issue, initially it seems on first boot that
the service was created disabled.
So at first I thought I could not reproduce it. The installer seems to create
route:default in disabled state
(as it should).
Something seemed to have enabled it on the second boot for me.
Anyway the method to disable route:default (if it is not needed) is described
in
https://www.illumos.org/issues/14006
