The trick is to not think about where the config is and whether that file is writable. Use `systemctl edit ..` and it’ll do the right thing. In this particular case it will likely put some overrides into “/etc” and leave the rest of the definition alone.

Once you’re done you can use `systemctl cat` again to see where all the bits of config for the unit come from.
