agreed, but why can't have socket simply optional a [Service] section to
save the "[email protected]" in cases like below?

[root@client:/etc/systemd/system]$ cat demo.socket
[Unit]
Description=Demo Server - Activation Socket

[Socket]
Accept=yes
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:7
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:19
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:21

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/echo "DEMO-SERVICE"
StandardOutput=socket
StandardInput=socket

[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target
