journalctl. I don't give a damn as to where the logs are, and I just have telljournalctlto give me the logs for whatever I want.That's all fine and good, but that's not quite related to the "everything is a file" metaphor. The data is still stored in files and accessed using conventional io and the command itself is routinely piped to other commands.
Everything being a file is extremely pervasive in unix, and I couldn't think of what systemd was doing that went in opposition to the metaphor.
But for a tool that read log configs and find that out for you, you've let Timers into your home.
