I do similar stuff for backups. What's bitten me sometimes was that I disabled the timers in order to do other stuff on the restic repo (e.g. cleaning locks) but didn't see that the triggered units were still running.

Yeah I run my steps as one-shot commands to try to avoid that, but the timer/service split can be very annoying like that.
