Because your daemon inherits all process properties from your login
shell, including the cgroup of your user. Systemd doesn't do that for
daemons/services, it starts all services as children in a clean and
proeprly prepared environment of pid 1.

If you want a proper cgroup, you need to create service files for you
daemons and tell systemd to start the service on your behalf, instead
of forking them yourself.
