BTW another case I've seen where systemd disappointed be, that's when in
case of problem, instead of trying to salvage logs at the next boot, it
just considers the log file corrupted and ignores it. (there was a useless
message about it, I have zero wish to try to salvage a binary data file
manually)

So where in a pre-journald world I'd have found everything till the crash
in /var/log messages (possibly, with some corrupted lines in the middle I
would just ignore), in a journald world there is a whole blackhole right
where the incident occurred, and the data is not parsed by journald nor
relayed to syslog.

This is seriously underwhelming.
