if you are replacing /sbin/service which gave feedback over all the
years you have to give feedback too and not make the same crap like
apple

and NO it does also not give feedback if service fails

it should

if you say it shouldn't you have a hughe design-mistake in the whole
software - if i say "service stop anythign" i mean stop and not
that any dumkb software fires it up

if you can give a warning you can also stop the socket
this is what the user expects and if your software-design
is not able to act logically it is broken

"service restart htt"

you can type TAb the whole day and will get no auto-completion
if the service is running - shos me you are not really using your
own software and i did not think a bugreport for such basics
is needed

sorry to say but: it does nobody interest what you like
a fs-check on a 4 TB disk without any feedback is unnaccpetable
because inak KVM-Session you see not disk-LED's and do not hear the
drive - so with your behavior in the worst case somebody forces
a hard restart while fsck is running

i first disable the dumb quite-option on every install

i recommend you take a look at a F14 boot and yours
it is a hughe differene having a red colored FAILED or your text-desert with
no difference and the output of the service-description instead a short name
is simply a design-mistake

yes it is a improvent to get htis after the boot but if you restart a server
you nromally watch the boot and have no reason to login as long you see
nothing red - this was broken by the usability-pifall how systemd boots
