While "instance" indeed aligns better with the systemd concept, I believe the newer units have better descriptions: $ systemctl cat [email protected] \ [email protected] \ [email protected] | grep Description Description=OpenVPN connection to %i Description=OpenVPN service for %I Description=OpenVPN tunnel for %I The [email protected] variant should probably be avoided but is supposedly kept for backward compatibility.
