Reasons excluded to avoid yet another flamefest...:( If you search the archives, you will notice that longer initscripts support is already planned. But this only concerns the booting itself. As consolekit is unmaintained, polkit will soon depend on systemd. The next Gnome version will require systemd - more to come. That said, if you run a machine that does not depend on any of this (like a server), you will probably be able to keep using traditional initscripts for a while. Of course, this may change as the situation changes.
