Sorry about that.

That makes sense and would solve the problem of having several Emacs versions 
installed.

I'm a bit afraid that using the directory given by systemd might be confusing 
because it won't respect the prefix set by the user.  E.g., Emacs being 
installed to /usr/local but the service file going to /usr/lib/systemd/user.  
However, I think this is just the way systemd expects things to be and it 
would be up to the systemd developers to change this.
