iotwatch.target and the large amount of posts about abolsute basics with
no information like contents of unit files is annoying

and frankly starting your conversations with "Cause of the trouble (and
possible reason for systemd's unpopularity) seems to be rather arbitrary
restrictions without reasoning (which is completely against the GNU
spirit of seeking for limitless software)" won't get you far when you
state that you lived under a stone for nearly a decade and now are
starting by zero with systemd
