That response appears to be written by a systemd developer, so it's not exactly surprising. And the writer immediately goes into a contradiction:

# Things that interact regularly with PID 1 over a bus or socket but are # isolated by process and privileges. This includes a handful things, like # logind and the journal.

Which he had to begrudgingly admits later, is not exactly true:

# This is a reasonable request, and I’ve been pushing for more modularity # around parsing for a while.

Except that he fails again. This is not about parsing. He then goes and builds a big house of cards, focusing on parsing, etc… The problem with a simple command crashing PID 1 is that it's just a parsing problem.

Year, right. This type of an intentional blind spot is quite typical, inside the systemd reality distortion field.

Besides, throwing a well-deserved temper tantrum is not such a bad thing.
