So, "show" is very verbose. On the other hand
"status" is pretty
short. It only shows runtime information and that in a hightly reduced
way. For example fields are suppressed depending on the state of the
unit and other fields are shown, and then shows the process tree for
this. It also ellipsizes and aligns the output, and applies coloring (in
case the unit is in some 'maintenance' state, i.e. crashed, exited with
non-zero exit code, timed out, yadda yadda).
I think the differences between the two commands are sufficiently big to
warrant the two seperate commands.
In this case, I'd consider using "describe". Describe sounds quite a
bit more like a full listing of something, rather than a quick status.
