I am not sure what bikeshedding means in this case (it was all different
when I was at school ;-)

However, as an ldomctl user, I would be happier if the usage was consistent
with the man page:
it makes everything seem more trustworthy.

And once the machine is up and stable, you probably wont be using the
command very often, and might need to
quickly check if it is (eg) init-system or system-init.
