Because network.target itself does not do anything at all. You have
some other service which does actual job of setting up networking. This
other service is ordered before network.target. Ordering something else
before network.target will simply run them concurrently.

In case of iptables this leaves you with window where interfaces are up
but iptables is not yet setup.
