Correct.

To be honest, most of my testing with Raspbian has been just debugging drivers 
during normal operation, not with the shutdown scripts. I also haven't had much 
of a chance to test with systemd.

Even stranger, someone else saw the opposite problem with the same .deb version 
in Debian/x86: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=799849

Yes.

Not sure - the OMNIVS1000 that I used to test tripplite_usb does not have a 
serial port.

There seem to be some options to force the UPS to reboot, but it is unclear 
which protocol number the serial driver was written for.
