people that say this, have invariable never worked in the guts of a distribution.
That may be, but it still can be a lot easier for someone who is not a programmer and who learned what it means last century to remember what 3 on cmdline does than what to type at a Grub menu that can substitute for it.
So? Multi-user and graphical are clear enough, but who came up with target to summarize an operational configuration easily visualized via the simple chkconfig -l matrix? The word's usage is not clear to me, and thus, not easily memorable.
There is a complete stack to visualize what systemd does.
By visualize I meant an answer to a question arising working at a shell prompt, usually in runlevel 3.
systemd-analyze plot > sd.svg
if that's not enough
MC on tty3 won't open it.
systemctl dot | dot -Tsvg > systemd.svg
No exit until Ctrl-C. Only 837 bytes.
read the svg files with a modern browser.
Defeats my needs. Far more often than not when I want something from chkconfig -l output, X isn't running.
Still not enough ?
boot with init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-bootchart and then read the svg files in /run/log
Without X available, viewable how? One of the advantages of working on a vtty cmdline or in MC is a fullscreen's absence of distractions along with nice big easy to read text. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
