The bug here is that a leading number will "convert" to the number
and it actually runs with the UID specified that way: 0day = 0,
7days = 7.

No, this is not the case. Only all-digit User= values are treated
as

Then behavior is "correct".

Or in other words: The original bug description is wrong. The bug isn't
with non-existent users. That works fine.

That is correct.

There's a lot of misinformation floating around with this issue -- there's a tendency amongst some parts of the Linux community to jump on the systemd-bashing bandwagon without fully understanding the problems. The best thing we can do to counter this is to ascertain the facts, decide what if anything needs to be fixed, and discuss the best way to move forward with that.
