Listening on multiple sockets is almost as simple to implement as
listening a single socket, so isn't it an overkill to run yet another
syslog daemon just to address this simple issue?  Those who already use
sophisticated syslog daemons like rsyslog would hardly bother with
forwarding to journald, I'm talking mostly about basic "out of box"
configurations where a single syslog daemon is enough and journald could
serve this role.
