That seems to be a popular opinion whenever systemd-subsumes-feature-x comes up.
I'm on the fence. I see that systemd is making strides in "fixing" feature gaps that are mostly a consequence of SysV's original goals. I am slowly struggling to replace my understanding of SysV features with systemd's.
For user-interactive/desktop style linux computers, systemd can help linux compete well with OS X and other modern OSs. The great news is that there will probably always be a linux distro that will leverage SysV for its simplicity and if we need targets that are simple, it will meet that need.
