Precisely. I /did/ write "blind restarts", didn't I? Yes, I did:

I've been in the position where another administrator's blind restart
mechanism destroyed a production database and I had to clean up the
mess. Call me insulting and ignorant and one-sided if you will but I've
been there before. I'd rather not go there ever again.

If you insist on going there yourself? That's your problem. I'd
appreciate it if you (and systemd) would cease trying to make it mine.
