I’m reading about systemd, and it looks to me these two directories have the exact same files, but Rocky seems to only use /usr/lib/systemd/system. So what is the purpose of having both?
Thanks for your help.

/lib
is a symlink to /usr/lib
. Most things should be using /usr/...
in majority of cases. But the symlinks are there for backwards compatibility.
