FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative PHP FastCGI
implementation with some additional features (mostly) useful for
heavy-loaded sites.

this actually makes some sense because systemd does do process
management. regardless, my guess was that it was enabled because
"everybody is using systemd, so why not?" and i expect it will happen
even more in the future.
