I have a fresh Bionic install with DI which doesn't mention netplan in ENI:
$ more interfaces # /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8) # Generated by debian-installer.
# The loopback interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback
This is particularly confusing since ifupdown is not installed :)
I think this file wants to say that netplan is installed by default, ifupdown is still available if needed, and where to go for more information.
