Did anyone follow the "systemd blob" link(within the above
mentioned link) and read any other points including -logind?

This apparently prompted a bug[1] on Debian that turned into a
somewhat long discussion within the bug messages. It appears
that Debian wanted to turn on, as default, the clean-up feature on
logout. If I read it correctly it would kill background processes
when you log out. This would result in killing, among other
things, a detached tmux process or a long running background
processes that in the past would have remained running.

So maybe the average user won't be concerned. :(
