On my setup, logs are stored under a dot-directory in my home directory,
which avoids needing any cooperation from root when setting up user
services (and the mentioned risk of overlap between user and system
services).
Due to /var == ~/.local/state according to the XDG spec (which, from your
other threads, you seem to want to follow closely), you might want to use
"${HOME}/.local/state/log/${daemon}" [1].
