I know the difference between doing a fork(2) and creating a
daemon. Instead of pointing to foreign documentation I would
suggest to call it "type=daemon", if systemd creates a daemon,
or to explain in the man page, why creating a daemon has been
called "forking", ignoring all the other man pages you have
listed.

To reduce confusion and to keep a common terminology I would
recommend option 1.
