Well, first of all, he doesn't have to remember, he can still do this in two steps manually. But more importantly, so far all our verbs are single words, and everything that comes after them are arguments to the verbs. THis makes things nicely uniform, not only for the admin to grok, but also for code to parse (and not just inside of systemctl, but also in the shell completion logic and suchlike). But anyway, this is certainly a matter of taste...
