I think it would make sense to recommend that packagers and upstream
packages adopt Restart=on-failure or Restart=on-abnormal (where the

recommendation should be taken with a grain of salt, as for some
services it might be a bad choice to just tape over problems and
restarting it again on failure... Hence, this is really not something to
blindly apply to all services on the world, but just a recommendation
that individually should be considered.


We already have units in the wild upstream where the internet has effectively spread ignorance once again which contain "Restart=Always" when they should not so I would think it would be better send the signal to upstream not to set these settings et all but rather expected downstream distribution to set this based on their own policy so those downstream distribution can provide consistent end user expectation for their administrative user base.
