A core part of the Unix philosophy is being able to pipe standard streams between processes, files, sockets, etc, as the user sees fit. Systemd, particularly journald, violates this severely by snarfing any stream you want to send to /var/log or wherever and locking it in a binary database somewhere, that you have to use journalctl to access. I have no problem with journald as an idea, but the audacity that it knows better than the user what to do with stdout/stderr is insane, and 100% anti-Unix.
