Let us say that we accept your main premises: systemd will be much faster, much more reliable, and a better expenditure of system resources. What we haven't seen from you is a list of what will be lost. 1) Is there anything that currently works which will suddenly stop working? (I am reminded of the cups discussion) 2) Are there tools that will be needed that don't exist yet (or worse, won't exist when systemd is rolled out). 3) Has there been a trial phase with system admins who don't frequent this list or your blog? They are likely to have needs that you haven't anticipated. 4) Is systemd compatible with the functionality of a rescue disk?
