Admittedly there seems to be less of them now than when systemd first invaded. cups is a pet hate of mine, wouldn't 'cupsd' be much more intuitive than 'org.cups.cupsd.service' or am I missing something?

That's why I still use Debian 5 stable in a container as a print server... Cups
2.0+ is a real piece of crap. And yes, these org.xxx.xxx names _are_ stupid
especially for filenames. But after using modern Fedoras, I think that systemd
services are no longer supposed to be managed manually, but rather through some
frontend...
