quoted from the manual: (systemctl show) "is intended to be used
whenever computer-parsable output is required. . Use status if you are
looking for formatted human-readable output."

`systemctl status` will omit the `Memory` field if the MemroyCurrent value
is uint64max.
I am fine with it, the output is consistent as an integer, and is
informative enough to tell the user this value is absent.
