Reading the related man-page [1] I suppose that it is up to the user initiating the reboot whether the system is soft or cold rebooted. Quoting: 'Note that systemd-soft-reboot.service (and related units) should never be executed directly. Instead, trigger system shutdown with a command such as "systemctl soft-reboot".'
