Please excuse my OWA induced top post.
Thank you for the information.
I found the dconf pull request (#229 https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/pull/229). Should discussion occur in the comments on github or on the list?
I'll start new threads to separate the discussion for chrony/ntp and iptables/firewalld.

Actually, there hasn't been much conversation on this. Thanks for
starting the conversation!
IMO, we should start with system defaults as first/primary goal, then
enable secondary configs in future passes. aka, address firewalld first
then iptables.
If we're able to get both done at the same time, then great -- but focus
should be on system default first.
What does everyone think of such an approach?
