None of the elemental-setup-*.service files are owned by a package

Running

rpm -qf /usr/lib/systemd/system/elemental-setup-*

shows is not owned by any package for all of them.

Yep, both this and the permission bits in #1895 are because of embedding+extracting in the init command. One way to get around both of these would be to wrap the embedded features in a tar/rpm and install it that way.

It will probably not be accepted to SLE as-is.

What's wrong with providing the respective .service files within the RPM ?

I agree this is a bit uncommon. But we should consider them as user defined services. We could consider installing them in /etc/systemd/system so it is clear that those files are not necessarily provided by an RPM.

Couples us a bit more to SUSE specifics. Having them embedded within the elemental-client binary makes possible the story of making simple Elemental OS out of any Linux OS including systemd, dracut and grub.

👍 on the move to /etc/systemd/system then.
