Again with my admin hat it should not it.

It should provide the admin with the means to take actions if an failure occurs since in large deployments you might want send different email depending on which service is failing like sending [email protected] mail if bind goes down, [email protected] if apache goes down etc. and at the same time take other action like potentially trigger abrt to send bug report or revert changes and restart the daemon etc. as opposed to pipe a simple mail notification to root and systemd provides exactly that to admins via OnFailure= see man systemd.unit for details...
