The only scenario where you really want to use nft is where iptables command
doesn't exist. I don't know how realistic scenario it is but I assume it can
happen in the wild. Otherwise calling iptables will take care of both iptables
and nftables automatically if those are supported on system. That's why I
proposed to invert current patch logic.
