No it doesn’t matter if run with sudo, postgres or even root.  Debian actually wraps the command and executes some some initial scripts with different privileges but ends up making sure that Postgres ends up running under the postgres user.  I get the same output if run with sudo:

sudo systemctl status postgresql@9.4-main.service -l

   Error: could not exec   start -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.4/main -l /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.4-main.log -s -o  -c config_file="/etc/postgresql/9.4/main/postgresql.conf”

Thanks, though.
