I am not really asking for tools that do a lot of jobs, though. A simple program that manages systemd services or provides a nice UI around journald logs seems completely reasonable to me. That said, I don't take the UNIX philosophy to be gospel, and frankly, very little of the Linux kernel or desktop really seems to. That seems to be closer to what the *BSD derivatives would steer towards. I just want a functional operating system, and the specific ideology or design of packages isn't too big of a concern so as long as the end result seems solid.

Completely Agree >> [...] the specific ideology or design of packages isn't too big of a concern so as long as the end result seems solid. The framework of thinking, while I agree is not gospel, is helpful in guiding design thinking towards a shared goal.
