I think the answer to that is the journal. If you want to inspect everything from the beginning of the boot, you can just use journalctl -b. I think it would be quite confusing if systemd would suddenly display a whole bunch of messages which would all fly by immediately without a chance to read them. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
