Ok, I may care a bit, so I'll add my two cents: I suppose the general use-case here (i.e., not seen from the point of view of either a kernel or a systemd developer, but trying to imagine an end-user), is when 'boot is broken'. In that case, it makes a lot of sense to me to have a simple switch to give all the relevant debug info about the boot process. There are basically two things that may be broken: the kernel or systemd (or the initrd if that's !=systemd), and the end-user probably doesn't care much for the distinction. I'd therefore think it makes the most sense for "debug" to trigger debugging of all these things. I'm sure there are ways to see this to justify the opposite view though...
