Everyone seems very focussed upon Debian in this thread, even though the thread started out discussing all distributions.

It might be worth everyone's while remembering that Debian is not the be-all and end-all here, even though it did have a massive hoo-hah. The processes in other distributions were markedly different.

The first link doesn't seem to support redhat strongarming.

Arch rc maintainer decided to drop rc for systemd.

The linked evil-poettering intermezzo seems to be irrelevant and strawman-ish too.
