Google Cloud's hypervisors also do not make use of systemd, or at least they didn't as of mid-2018.
They are Linux though, not BSD.
Google still can't figure out how to get IPv6 working for containers on GCP, I swear that whole platform is a readheaded stepchild made to check a box.
I mean, no major cloud provider has adopted ipv6 despite it being a clear advantage in many areas for them.
Makes double sense when you consider the fact that at google they basically wrote their own software defined network appliances.
OVH & DigitalOcean have both adpoted IPv6 as a first class feature on their VMs, Google is the only holdout that doesn't offer any IPv6 support on VMs among the major providers.
OVH and DO are not cloud providers. They’re more like VPS providers. And vps providers tend to have ipv6.
But Azure, AWS and even Oracle cloud do not have support for ipv6 on instances.

It is the exception that proves the rule.
I'll probably be downvoted into oblivion for this, but this is a per peeve of mine. Your use of the expression doesn't make sense.
The expression is highlighting that you need to observe a negative in order to determine whether a rule is true. For example, if I make the statement: "Only birds have wings", then any observation of a non-bird without wings are exceptions to the rule that proves said rule.
The observation of a bat is indeed an exception to the rule, but it does not prove it. In fact, it does the opposite. It disproves it.

"...systemd is preferred where it's preferred."
