no you refuse to understand that *nobody* wants to split
out *all* systemd logs because just the excessive *user
session* logging and that this messages should not exist
at all in a non-debugging environment

you also refuse to understand that the intention in
production environments using a *centralized* SQL
logging is do *drop that messages* but hardly to
drop anything from systemd

so the next time before you take "incompetence"
in your mouth try to understand the context or
ask yourself on which side it exists

cause and effect - what reaction did he expect by
follow a link to a for weeks existing bugreport and
as only action close it with "NOBUG" a minute later

surely - you have no need to produce that flood in the first instance
and if you as systemd-developer want that informations then enable
deugging but stop to decide what every user needs to have in his logs
or actively to filter

realize that the world don't turn around systemd developers and
just stop your arrogance and ignorance - you will wonder how
friendly the same people become complaining all the time if
upstream stops to handle users like someone who disturbs
