the example isn't right. This state is entered if a service unit has no ExecStart=/ExecStop= line at all, but whether an executable exists at all is only determined when we are going to start it. And that's a good thing as the binary might not exist during early boot yet because its file system is not mounted yet

So I did test this, before committing. ExecStart=asfdasfasd fails (early), but ExecStart=/bin/fasdfasdfsdf "succeeds" (fails late). But you're right, the example is wrong as written.
