You know, if you let a good engineer design a car, you get a Formula 1.
It looks cool, it has great features and great performance.
And only a few people in the world would actually want to use one, when
given the option.
A Formula 1 is not allowed on regular roads, people don't want to spend
so much time learning a different and unforgiving driving mechanism, and
they definitely don't want to seat their family and kids in one.
systemd is currently a racing car. The people who are asking you for a
minivan are not stupid, or out to get you; they have better things to do
with their time than to adapt their entire life to owning a racing car.
Yes, they'd like to have a better minivan, but given their life, they
need a _minivan_. If you keep trying to sell them a racing car, they'll
eventually just let you play with your racing car and go elsewhere.
The racing car technology needs to be transferred to the minivan
concept; if it means leaving some cool technology unused, so be it.
