There is probably some other service that had MemoryAccounting=yes
which in turn effectively (even though dbus property doesn't reflect
that) enabled MemoryAccounting on all "sibling" services.

Tasks and memory accounting is now enabled by default in upstream so I
figure these weird issues are more visible on CentOS where accounting
still defaults to "no".
