Systemd's "soft reboot" has nothing to do with Windows' "fast startup". Those are two completely different concepts for two completely different use cases.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My new background
Cute penguins reviving an old laptop with Linux.
... I feel like loading the boot sector of a disk and jumping into the boot loader would be a more useful feature than whatever this is. I usually reboot to switch os or upgrade the kernel. Userspace cleanup is already pretty easy. How do zombie processes or open files fare with this scheme? Crashed drivers? Why replace the root fs?
