First, there was a bug in some Debian exim4-* packages: systemd unit file
(/usr/lib/systemd/system/exim4.service) have reference fo /etc/default/exim4,
while package was shipped with /etc/default/exim (without "4"), so
configuration was not applied on startup. Fixed in 4.97~RC2-1.

Second, on Debian systemd unit file uses variables EXIMSERVICE and
UPEX4OPTS, those are not mentioned in /etc/default/exim4. I don't know why,
probably content of this file is artifact of SysV era, it should be
replaced.

I see no problems with manual running "exim4 -d..." under Debian.
Maybe your debug output was sent to /var/log/exim4/mainlog.
