Surprisingly, in Debian the shutdown binary is in the systemd-sysv

issues a command to systemd like the appropriate systemctl reboot or
systemctl halt.

Unfortunately, systemd doesn't offer a native equivalent to a timed
shutdown, so one has to do an arcane construct involving systemd-run and
a transient unit to achive that, but that's just the way things are. Not
everything around systemd is good.
root@theon:~ # ls -l /usr/sbin/shutdown
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Mar 14 04:25 /usr/sbin/shutdown -> ../bin/systemctl
root@theon:~ # dpkg-query -S /usr/sbin/shutdown
systemd-sysv: /usr/sbin/shutdown
So ... nothing but a symlink. But doesn’t it fully support the usual
shutdown options, including delay?
