While we're at this, I would like to ask the developer commiunity
whether it is true that we have dedided to go away from having
persistent /etc/passwd and /etc/group and that it will soon be
officially forbidden to use adduser in packages?
I am (nominally) one of the systemd package maintainers and I am not aware of anybody having decided this. At this point I would say that using DynamicUser if possible, and sysusers if not, is just a best practice.
As usual in policy matters, policy follows usage.

Like many others, I believe that adduser is generally useful outside of maintainer scripts.
