My question would be - what sort of files are you creating with tmpfiles?

system stuff is known to use dynamic directories in /var /run and
similar and it all used to be created ad-hoc in either packaging or
the init scripts.

User stuff on the other hand, generally works with untouched home
directories as they typically are not allowed to be modified by
typical packaging systems. Hence most of the user things handle
creation of the dirs they need themself and do it gracefully enough.
