Honestly it is quite confusing to me that wic changes fstab content.
It is confusing as you add something on base-files for fstab and it
may, or not, be what is used.

As I mentioned before, our needs is to have a way to forbid this
behavior and we use standard wks files specially when doing
development so an option makes it easy to adopt one way or another in
a distro for example.

Other possible rootfs changes also should be possible to be disabled
but IMO it should be per-feature (one for fstab, one for exclude,
...).
