One thing to say: I heard, at least once, that systemd's timer are more
complicated because in order to make a timer you need two files instead
of creating one, especially in comparison to cron where you need just
one line although I always forget the order of fields. I would say a
timer section in the service file could be a nice shortcut to create
timers for services quickly.
