Switching to systemd is not a small change, it's a revolutionary change, with the potential to break many people's boot (it has broken things in Fedora, and openSUSE, and it's happening in Arch Linux as well). So, a sensible person would wait until a sensible time to make the big switch (which is clearly not now). -- Felipe Contreras
