Not when "disable" is apparently only a mild suggestion that
has no actual effect :-). Apparently the word which actually
means "disable" is "mask".

Also if there are any real dependencies on NM, they are gonna
fail anyway, because NM isn't running anything on my system
and anyone expecting it to be able to do things to the
network is already broken.
