That would be optimisation. A very smart programmer once taught us
that "premature optimisation is the root of all evil". Perhaps the
author felt that other work was of higher priority at the time?
Besides, I would expect any Linux admin worth paying who found this
syntax so troublesome to be able to create a wrapper to suit their
preferred invocation style with minimal effort.
alias oldservice () { systemctl $2 $1.service; }
That took about as long to think up as it did to type. I am sure you
could improve upon it with little work.
# oldservice httpd status
httpd.service - LSB: start and stop Apache HTTP Server
Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd)
Active: inactive (dead)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/httpd.service
# oldservice httpd start
#
I'm also sure that upstream would be happy to review patches to
improve usability and merge them if appropriate.
Regards,
Bryn.
