I didn't mean links in the systemd package itself, but other packages which want to hook into targets or services. E. g. the network-manager package could ship a network-online.target.wants/network-manager.service symlink. Of course it could also just do the usual WantedBy= in the unit and call systemctl enable on installation (that's what the Debian package does), but there are cases where you don't really want to make the enablement configurable by the admin.
