A systemd's Journal is replacing syslog functionality. https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1IC9yOXj7j6cdLLxWEBAGRL6wl97tFxgjLUE...
As syslog is needed only on systems that will continue using it for various reasons until it will be replaced, it can and should be removed from default installation, which is essentially desktop.
And how did you come to the idea that a default install is a desktop ?
Oh worse, much worse than that! In corporate settings that i work in it is important for a variety of reasons that workstations report various things to the "central syslog". Those reasons include regulatory compliance, not least of all to do with login and access. Yes, "various reasons" for continuing to use it. -- Before all else, we seek, upon our common labor as a nation, the blessings of Almighty God. Dwight D.
