I did not say that.

The bug has the title: "remove empty private tmp directories after use".
Again, is systemd's job to remove them since systemd created those 
directories in the first place!

1. Create the private directory
2. Start the service
3. Stop the service (or the service somehow die)
4. Remove the directory created in step 1 (clean-up).

And how do you know that all services in fedora continue to work fine if 
the private tmp is deleted? Did you us strace on all of them? :-)

tmpwatch is kid of evil (from my point of view). It's fine on a laptop 
which is restarted every day. Not so fine on a server.

Just my 2 cents point of view.
