I’m starting an oneshot systemd service from udev remove event and wanted to
confirm the expected behavior if an instance of service is running and another

is not started if one is already running.
There is only ever a single instance of a unit with a specific name, since
the name is how you control it.
If multiple instances are needed, they need to have unique names, usually
through a template unit (foo@.service → foo@$env{something}.service).
