I have to agree on systemctl's naming scheme is terrible inefficient. This is something I use all the time when I'm on Archlinux and while I've come to memorize systemctl's interface for the most part it's still very poorly thought out, favouring verbosity over simplicity at every level.

I've made enough aliases to make it useful and without having to type such a long name. It should definitely be a shorter name for such a critical piece of software.

One example is using user services vs system services and the various non-intuitive locations and name schemes of the various .service files.
