It seems you still don't want the advertised tool though, because you prefer to just send SIGKILL immediately.
Environments differ though, the software I run will do worse on power failures/SIGKILL than on SIGTERM. I would prefer it to be more resillient, embrace a crash-only design, etc. But my world suffers from practicalities, so I deal with it by being careful with SIGKILL.
