Public bug reported:

network configuration in system config should override that found as provided by a datasource.
The order of precedence should be:
  datasource
  system config
  kernel command line

When juju creates lxc containers they want to be in control of networking and do not want cloud-init to configure networking either from the datasource (lxc's template provided nocloud) or from fallback.
They are specifying that configuration directly in /etc/network/interfaces.
