If you've opted out of netplan, then you need to configure one of systemd-networkd or NetworkManager manually (on server, NetworkManager is only present if you've installed it).
I personally used to be opposed to netplan but I had to do some very esoteric network configuration which was super easy with netplan.
Unless it still insists on realizing all state or no state, I think I still prefer the things doing the work for/underneath Netplan
To your point, esoteric configurations. Netplan is all or nothing: done improperly, it can more easily break the whole house of cards.
It tries/applies everything... where the others allow more utility
I think it's intentional because they don't really want users changing stuff, especially the spyware parts.
Android is also truly horrible, with some settings (like privacy settings) redirecting you to a sluggish embedded remote web page.
I dread the time when they remove the old one. Small settings that I like to tinker with are hidden here and I doubt program managers will care about them at all.
Example: customizing the mouse theme. Seems frivolous, but without changing the text cursor, increasing the cursor size too much makes it very difficult to pinpoint text since the effect point is on the center of a big cursor rather than on a clearly defined edge.
