Systemd not being a daemon doesn't make any sense; both it and SysV are init systems which are by necessity daemonized processes.

Well technically PID 1 is not a daemonized process because there is no one who could have daemonized it.

That’s the point. The same principle applies to Docker. Although conceivably the daemon could be just about process/container management instead of image management as well.

Well, the argument that Red Hat makes is that there already is systemd as a daemon for process management; all other functionality that docker provides does not necessitate a daemon. Thus Podman, Buildah etc.
