Most distro maintainers disagree apparently, I wonder why.

Distro maintainers fall into the following categories (with the accompanying fictitious percentages):

* 50% - maintainers who don't care about systemd

* 35% - maintainers who do care, but who feel powerless to stop the Domino Effect (and don't want to echo the familiar criticisms of it, or be associated with the "haters")

* 10% - maintainers who actually like systemd, because it is optimised for their use cases (at the expense of others)

* 5% - maintainers who can't stand systemd, and leave their distro/OS over it
