It’s not just systemd. Wayland broke the world. ifconfig doesn’t work anymore. File permissions don’t reliably work thanks to acls. There’s also the selinux vs cgroups vs ???, etc, etc.

ifconfig got replaced just as OpenBSD's pf replaced whatever it replaced.

Wayland, ACLs, SELinux and cgroup are all just options, none are forced.

Was deprecated ~20 years ago. Not a recent change.

This doesn't make any sense? It's like writing "network drivers vs. X11" in OpenBSD.
