Mostly I just read arch-general and try to understand arguments.  I do,
however, find this contribution the thread to which you refer very
saddening.
It is not the way I interpret the vast majority of contributions here.

Perhaps we should all just shut up and do as we are told.

Sure, systemd sucks.

...But so does sysvinit. That's why every distro has their own non-standard, customized init script wrappers that you're not ever supposed to invoke directly.

Have you ever actually tried to get SysV Init scripts to work out the dependencies among themselves? Even if you get the non-standardized syntax right... most SysV implementations don't even support it (e.g. Debian).

systemd offers solutions to this that result in faster boot-time, a more reliable boot (fewer race conditions), and (eventually) less system init-script maintenance time.

SysV only offers that "after all the countless hours of hand crafting these damn scripts and hand-sorting them into the right order -- if you don't touch them then they won't break."

At some point you have to turn a deaf ear to nay-sayers and move on.
