I find it a bit odd that they don't document those things, since by not doing so, they draw attention to "internal switches" that they don't want to "advertise". I guess they haven't gotten the news: security through obscurity...isn't.
It reminds me of Microsoft. They have been doing that for ages, and then people making money by publishing "Undocumented Windows functions, Number Eleven". But systemd devs are not the first to do this. Other opensource projects had undocumented switches for many years. I remember one that named those switches "use-the-force-luke" or something similar. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
