A system service doesn't necessarily mean root or "non-interactive/system user"
only.
It's a service that can be configured by the system admin and it can be made to
run under any user.
Someone could very well want to configure some kinds of services within
config.scm rather than having
to manage both a system and user config.
My 2¢.
Cheers,
