if that option is used in the provided systemd-unit one should ask the
guy who have written it: why?
if it would be useful my "ExecReload=/usr/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID"
won't work for nearly 10 years without "PIDFile" (no i won't use and
configure rndc - keep it simple)
PIDFile is required on type=forking services. And type=forking services
is required to report success or failure during systemctl start named.
Your custom workflow may not need it, but it is still useful and there
is a reason why it is still used.
rndc is quite a cool thing. running your named without it prevents
several great debugging checks. YMMV.
