Ah, thanks, I wasn't aware they're distinct. So would simply adding apt- daily-upgrade.service to the Before via cloud-init's bootcmd and then issuing a daemon-reload be a suitable workaround? There's a 30s window until the upgrade process starts if apt's history.log is to be trusted. That is probably enough to be somewhat reliable.
