I'd agree that the systemctl syntax is clumsier.
The CLI syntax is different, but the difference is negligible once you
are used to it.
However, the *.service file syntax is much, MUCH simpler than the old
init scripts!
An old-style postgrey init script:

A new-style postgrey service file:

There is way less wonky bash scripting in the new service file, because
it is mostly declarations, rather than code. As an added bonus, the old
postgrey init script never worked properly for me (it did not kill
cleanly, no idea why), but the new systemd service file works great.
For example, if you declare the name of the pid file in the service
file, systemd automatically knows to use that pid when stopping the
service. It's brilliant.
