SystemMaxUse= to me means, do not use more than this, in total, for journals. SystemMaxFileSize= to me means, journal files themselves should not grow larger than this. Interestingly on my system, systemd-journald, with defaults, has created several 16MB journal files, nothing larger. Since they can become corrupt, and systemd-journald detects this and will then create and use a new journal file, it seems like a smaller log size is reasonable. 1G might be a lot of log info to lose if it's irreparably corrupt for whatever reason.
