I don't think you'll need to convince anyone about the usefulness of start/stop. To me restart is the contentious, since 1) It may be technically hard to support in certain contexts 2) I think it may lead to develop systems that are less reliable than they could be. My rationale behind 2) is that first it multiplies the code paths and potential need to share spaghettis between stop and restart. Second booting is still an operation fraught with uncertainties, so your restart may actually end up formally being a stop... Since you have to deal with that idea anyway I'd say it's better not to support a restart event.
