I understand the sentiment you're expressing here, and it's often a reasonable one.
However, when every sharp edge case I've encountered with SystemD (both professionally and personally) ends either in a open Github Issue whose discussion from the project maintainers ends up being "Wow. That's tricky. I'm not sure whether or not that behavior is correct. Maybe we should do something about this or document this so other folks know about it." (and then nothing happens, not even the documentation) or a closed Github Issue with "Sorry, your usecase is <strike>inconvenient to implement</strike> unsupported. E_NOTABUG", expecting PRs is expecting way too much.
I've long been in the habit of reading accounts like yours, understanding the truth and wisdom that's being expressed, then noping the fuck out of the tech/product/situation in question. It has saved me a lot of trouble over the years. Even as others are completely mystified. Some people just like abuse, I guess.
