It doesn't use xinetd any more. It uses systemd which is already running anyway.

What problem are you attempting to solve that you think this is the solution?

There's good reason for it being a socket based service, even prior to

Most people don't want the tftp server process to be always running. So it's nice that systemd will answer the socket connect and start the server only when it is needed.

systemd, so it would be useful understanding what you are trying to
accomplish as an end goal.
see above ... given that the ExecStart line is running as intended, if i cannot solve this dependency problem i will just do a personaly mytftp.service and be done with it...

The easiest way to do what you want is to copy /usr/lib/systemd/system/tftp.service to /etc/systemd and edit it to remove the socket dependency and add the -l option to the server command.
