As pointed out in the review, all this applies to the user services too, so are not managed by the "init system", but by the more generic "service manager". Also: - use oxford comma - change "employ" to "use" in various places - change "the init system forwards messages to syslog" to "are forwarded to syslog". This is done by systemd-journald, so really there is no forwarding, because systemd-journald just writes them to a file in the common setup, so let's use the passive form to avoid specifying who does this.
