I genuinely don't see what's so complex about a service unit file. It's a simple INI file that has multiple sections that describes the service, tells what command to run and specifies any dependencies. It's literally the same thing that init scripts do except in a much more concise and efficient manner. And as I said before, there's a ton of systemd service unit files on any Linux system that you can take a look at and use as inspiration for your own services. Taking a little time to learn the ways of systemd is not a huge burdensome task like you're making it seem to be. I don't see why you think everyone should conflate systemd with complexity.
And about the voluminous documentation, well man pages are supposed to be comprehensive and cover every single aspect of the tools being described. They're not there to just be an intro to systemd for new users and administrators. If you want something like that, look no further that the "systemd for Administrators" series of articles written by the systemd author himself. https://github.com/shibumi/systemd-for-administrators/blob/m....
