Do we need that? I mean, what's the advantage of having a speedier
startup wrt the introduction of massive complexity? Do we need the
saved seconds for something useful? How much time do we actually use
to manage/struggle with systemd in comparison to a potentially slower
but more mature and less complex system?

Just curious..

If the goal was to speed up startup, by executing stuff in parallel that does not have dependencies on each other, that could've been done in many other, simpler ways.
