Service templates are really about multi-instantiation, and explicitly not about enabling parameterization. That's why we only take a single instance identifier as parameter, and not a list of parameters, for example. Why wouldn't a nomral suervice suffice for your usecase, with maybe a few .d/ dropins to configure things differently?
