The way that hot-restart works is that the USR2 signal is sent to the currently running manager, which itself will spawn a new manager and then wait for it to be ready, then exit. I don't think that Type=simple will correctly track the new process when this happens since the new process was not spawned by systemd, but I could be wrong, I haven't tested this since hypnotoad's pidfile behavior was fixed to work better for systemd. But in any case unless there's some other benefit to running it in foreground mode, I still think it's better to use its "default" forking mode.
