Don't have an account there. But something ending in .service is but
one example of a systemd unit. All have similar properties (in that
they can be started, stopped, have status, etc). For the service type
in puppet, it would be 99.9% safe to just append .service in the
systemd provider and be done with it. But perhaps people would want to
manage other types of units with puppet - for which a new type could
be written, but given that they share so much with "services", it
makes sense to just overload that, IMO - so I guess the answer is that
there's pros and cons to both approaches :)
