> systemd is being adopted because it solves problems well the distributors have, but THEN the distributor ALSO has to bend their distribution to the single enforced world-view the systemd folks have if they want it to integrate.

It is like saying that "It is great that engineers are working to provide a unified rail line across Europe, but they are assholes because they want everybody to use the same rail gauge as well as implementing these changes that will allow the rails to handle traffic going 200 mph. The unified rail folks have an agenda!!"

The problem they are trying to solve is solved by "bending of the will", so to say.
