> It doesn't make sense to restart in any of the listed failure modes:
I haven't learned much about systemd yet, so please ignore this if you
have a better handle on things, but: in the past one of Tor's transient
failure modes was that the system would start it before the system had set
up its IP addresses (especially true with the world of ipv6), or before
the system had set up its network interfaces, and if it just gave up right
then, the system Tor would stay down. So retrying some times, especially
at first boot, used to make sense.
