IMO, the primary purpose of Plymouth is to make Linux emulate Windows' boot and
shutdown processes, which is to say, hide all that goes on during those 
processes
behind a GUI screen on which little or nothing happens between BIOS/UEFI screen
and login screen. I've heard it enables other things, but those things are
apparently nothing I have any use for. The only installations I have with 
Plymouth
installed are all Mageia, which creates a basesystem dependency on it and cannot
be removed, only neutered.

Systemd's journal takes care of boot/shutdown logging, as well as most other 
logging.
