Hm, I was going back and forth on this patch... You are certainly right that
the user should never call those binaries directly. But we do list other
binaries in the documentation in similar circumstances. And I think we should
continue to do so, for two reasons:
1. when trying to understand how everythig works it makes it easier to start
with the documentation and see what binaries are used to do various things.
2. when looking for something related, it makes it easier to distinguish
various commands with a similar name. ("This systemd-sleep binary is not
the binary you're looking for." :))

Maybe we should move the binary to FILES section and mention that it should
not be called directly. But then this should be done also for systemd-journald
and others which are never called directly.
