There's a bit more to it, as well.

On the whole, I'm displeased with the systemd alternative for
controlling PostgreSQL. It's significantly hampered and doesn't allow
as much flexibility as the initscript. The major issue being trying to
nicely shut down the server instead of jumping straight to murder.

I really don't want to get into an OpenRC versus systemd flame-war,
but I really hate the systemd offering we have for PostgreSQL. It's
dumb and I recommend against using it.

I haven't used systemd and do not plan on using it until it actually
fixes a problem that's non-trivial, which is most likely never for me.

So, if any of you would like to improve our systemd offering, it'd be
welcomed enthusiastically.
