Personally I'm much more annoyed by taking control of how I partition my fucking drives.

Yes, I know why. IBMHat makes me like FreeBSD more with every power grab.

By making Linux less attractive to me.

It doesn't. If you are using GPT instead of MBR partitioning, AND you use particular partition type UUIDs that SystemD has reserved, THEN you can skip creating an /etc/fstab, and systemd will be able to mount the partitions where their type IDs indicate. If you do choose to create an /etc/fstab that will override the partition type IDs.

It has great optional support for Discoverable Partitions, which has made writing custom kernel cmdline's optional. https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/discoverable_par...

Systems is also are deprecating non merged-/usr.
