Oh, I think I parsed your statement wrong.  I should have read it as
"more than EnvironmentFile contains that syntax such as
ExecStartPre".

But that then results in a different question which can be answer in
the same manner which results in finding the same man page and the
following output....

        ExecStartPre=, ExecStartPost=
            Additional commands that are executed before or after the
command in
            ExecStart=, respectively. Syntax is the same as for
ExecStart=,
            except that multiple command lines are allowed and the
commands are
            executed one after the other, serially.

            If any of those commands (not prefixed with "-") fail, the
rest are
            not executed and the unit is considered failed.

You can argue that if you like, but my point is that on seeing the
examples the natural conclusion is that here is some new syntax I don't
know about, so let me look in the systemd docs for some explanation.
The fact that it's only documented in specific examples makes it much
harder to find. I don't expect the syntax of environment variable
assignments to be explained every time one of them shows up in a man
page.

Well I found it, I just didn't quote that bit. So Ed was right.
