Naturally, I have no idea whether someone on a desert island is using
them so that is an unfair question.

However, I have not heard of anyone using them (even when they were
buggy) and they are not only Debian-specific, there are much cleaner,
and uniform (ie. across all possible daemons) ways of doing such
things.

This is not sabotage. I'm afraid I am running out of energy to expend on
this issue, especially when there seems to be a non-trivial amount of bad
faith on this list and I appear to have to repeat myself here and on the
Github issue that this has absolutely nothing to do with systemd etc.

I'm sorry but I do not have the energy, time, nor inclination to respond
to this kind of unnecessary provocation.
