Are you aware that on RHEL7 the binary format is just in-memory? The on disk persistent log uses syslog.

journald aggregates log from the services's stdout/stderr, and keeps it in memory for fast access in "systemctl status" (one of my favorite systemd features). syslogs persists it. "Do one thing, do it well".

Not mandatory, and a separate component from journald. Again, "do one thing, do it well".
