systemd tries to minimize what it loads and also automatically unloads information about unused services. This means that it is very likely that information is not loaded when the user tries to "systemctl status" it. However I do believe that it makes sense that this call succeeds even then, to show meta information that might be relevant even if the services is not active in any way: the description string of a service for example, or the file in the file system a service definition was loaded from. It would be nice if D-Bus would allow "nowarn" policy rules, but unfortunately it currently doesn't. We could of course add some code to systemctl to skip the LoadUnit call if we are not run as root, but that would hardcode policy that should be softcoded in the dbus policy file and nowhere else. I think if we want to fix this for good, then the dbus policy logic should gain "nowarn" rules. I.e. this should be fix in dbus, not really systemd.
