Systemd must make sure that the system clock does not go backwards, 
which causes all kinds of problems, with file systems and with other 
software. To achieve that, systemd has to sync the system time to RTC 
on shutdown. Upstream's argument that the system time may not be more 
accurate is completely unrelated to this issue.
