Is it good practice to run a system without a syslog daemon?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Like how you cropped my message to make it seem like I was implying you couldn't disable logging on systemd
Then what's the meaning of this whole part?
Is it just a random tidbit that could be replaced with a blueberry muffin recipe without any change of meaning of the whole comment? Because it sure won't help OP at all with their Arch-specific question, so it's either that, or it provides contrast to the "corpo Linux", which is how I interpreted it.
And here's the remaining part of your comment I left out, just to make sure people won't lose the context between two three sentence long comments (for those without any attention span, it comes before the previous quoted part):
OP was asking about syslog so I answered about using using syslog. You're reading too much into it. They asked if they could go with or without a syslog daemon, so I told them they can disable syslog if they want to. They did not ask about journald so I didn't answer about journald.
Fair enough. I misunderstood, my bad.
