Fellow upstream means:
1. Different distro join in effort to do one thing. Maybe systemd is
indeed complex then initscript. Add If Arch is the only maintainer,
the effort will be high. But the reality is all distro use systemd can
debug it and improve it so Arch only need someting like a packager.
2. Services files will be upstreamd to their package, ie.
networkmanager provide its own networkmanager.services file which can
be used by all distro.

So this is why Arch try to follow upstream as close as possible.
