Just like resolved needs explicit opt in by the admin (the service is
disabled by default).
Also, it writes the resolv.conf to /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf.
So the admin needs to explicitly replace /etc/resolv.conf with a symlink
to enable this feature.
Also, 99,9% (or more) do not even need the fallback, because they've
setup their DNS config statically or via DNS.
Also, the fallback is clearly documented in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf,
so the fallback DNS entries are by no means hidden, as was claimed
somewhere else.

Honestly, this is a tempest in a tea pot.
