That’s 20 lines (17 excluding blank ones), nearly all of which is repetitive boilerplate. You’ll note the one I posted was just 12, including blank lines, of which only one was actual executable code (all the rest were directives).

I'm just trying to gauge how systemd makes this an easy customization of the system compared to what came before it.

Hopefully that answers your question ...
