When I wrote this I was thinking about allowing the /proc/uptime format
for this, but decided against it for a number of reasons. Instead I
preppaed systemd-timestamp for inclusion in initrds. I am not a fan of
allowing too many variables in the game where they bring no clear
benefit. Hence my question: why? Why can't your initrd simply include
systemd-timestamp in the image, the same way we do it on dracut? (the
binary has no deps, so there's nothing stopping you really).
