This is supposed to give you an overview of what is happening. You can always view the details using journalctl and whatnotbut most text displays these days are wider then 80 columns and as user i can assure you that i hate nothing more then crippled output when even on a TTY i can pipe wrapped outputs through "less" or it even fits wrapped on my screen at all crippeled informations in case of troubles are annoying because you don't know if the stripped part could be relevant in your situation until you know what's there this truncations everywhere due switching to systemd where one of the reasons i got that angry in 2011The truncation should take the terminal width into account using fd_columns(). It looks like in your case it fails to determine the terminal width of your boot VT and therefore defaults to '80'. Please try to verify this.
the main point was that it is *not* helpful to truncate outputs as default regardsless screen width - even if someone is on a terminal with only 80 chars you don't do him a favor - he is frustrated anyways by the small screen and got more frustrated for the additional penalty
