One suggestion I've heard is to write this line: Jan 1 00:00:00 localhost root: Run `journalctl` to see log data in /var/log/messages-compatible format
That would be a bad idea, as then you'd have an RPM-installed /var/log/messages that can't be used for "real" logs with rsyslog.
Right, if this were done, it would just be written, not owned by any RPM, just as /var/log/messages is currently not owned by any package.
