I am sorry, but I am actually kinda sure we (and particularly Michal) are doing a very good job there. The number of bugs is pretty low for such a basic component of this size, especially if you discount RFEs and suchlike. My guess is that there's simply a disparity between how important you considered that specific bug and how it appeared to us. Also note that the issue was not so clearly on systemd's side of things... Also, thanks for derailing the discussion with something totally unrelated.
