This is *probably* because one of the missing privileges is the
ability to write to files in /var/log/tor.  Try `Log debug stderr`
instead -- you'll have to fish the logs out of systemd's journal, but
I *think* it should keep a complete transcript.

ExecStart = /usr/bin/strace -f /usr/bin/tor -f /etc/tor/torrc --runasdaemon 0

seems like it ought to work (again, the trace will get written to the journal)
