Because it's work, for no apparent gain. I mean, the systemd people didn't
just code up all that journal stuff for no good reason, but because they
perceived a need to have it. And let's face it, the ability to just see the
stderr output from $FAILED_JOB with "systemctl status" is a whole damn lot
better than to restart the thing in the foreground and hope to be able to
reproduce the problem that caused it to die.

You can split off systemd-journal and its supporting files into a separate
binary package. That'd probably be quite simple. The question is, why would
you even want to ..?
