One convenience of journald is that it exposes a single place to plug in log collection for observability tooling

opentelemetry-collector, promtail, and so on have native plugins for it, which makes aggregation easier to setup

Most tools have "tail this plaintext file" as well, but if it's all flowing to journald, setting up log collection ends up being that much simpler
