I would have hoped that someone who can play with systemd in a sensible way might be able to suggest a solution.
I believe you have just defined the empty set :-).
But for a (possibly) useful suggesting, you might try my technique for working around utter failures in systemd (which always seem to have something to do with networked services).
I make sure /etc/rc.d/rc.local is set to executable and add lines like this to the end:
/bin/bash -c 'sleep 5 ; systemctl restart ypbind.service' > /dev/null 2>&1 < /dev/null &
That starts one of the many services that normally fails after a 5 second delay following boot. I have a whole list of this with increasing delay times.
