frankly it's nothing new or uncommon that services close and re-open
their logfiles by "reload" and that's really not systemd specific,
sysvinit had reload too
it's you turn what happens with "systemctl reload yourservice" becaus
ethere is no default action for that unless "ExecReload" is specified
