Journald didn't even exist when Fedora 16 was released, so how could it be optional?

Meanwhile, from the first public document of journald[1], it was always designed as an indispensable component of systemd.

I have strong memories of installing it on fedora 16 long before the 17 release was announced. I don't know about intent but I was a very avid fedora user and I was pro-journald before it was forced down my throat.
