Maybe the parameters and interface will simplify over time. Patterns emerge with use.

Yeah, that doesn't answer my question. What isn't necessary?

I don't know all of systemd but :

  - journal
  - networkd
  - console

Are already far from generic system config/init parts. These components are very nice and cleaner than older alternatives but it feels like unnecessary coupling. Also every release added magic variables to handle corner cases. They're proficient but complexity is increasing.
