Well, systemd is a particular answer to a set of problems that have been well known for a while. Building an alternative solutions to those problems is not necessarily "another systemd".

The quick summary: many people are critical of the architecture and design choices and implementation details in systemd in particular, rather than that the underlying issues it's supposed to address are real.

This isn't surprising, as some of the problems it addresses are real, and a pain. But there are other implementations that also address many of the same issues. Whether those would make you as happy as systemd is another matter.
