And what is wrong with

Failed to try-restart klogd.service: Operation refused, unit klogd.service may be requested by dependency only.

from the unit file /usr/lib/systemd/system/klogd.service

 [Unit]
 Description=System Kernel Logging Service
 Requisite=syslog.service
 BindsTo=syslog.service
 After=syslog.service
 RefuseManualStart=true

that is a clear dependency, in other words klogd is only used by an old syslogd.
