The fact that you have two ExecStart lines in there might have
something to do with it.
The exercise was to show you how to use /etc/rc.local, so I would
suggest you use the systemd file exactly as they showed it, and put a
call to mousepad into /etc/rc.local. You may have to create it. If so,
be sure to make it owned by root:root and execute for the owner only.
Exactly how you do those things I leave as an exercise for the student.
However, the systemd service is the better approach, so I suggest you
play with that approach and create a mousepad service. Good luck.
