They should do whatever they feel is best for them, as should we. They're releasing free as in freedom GPL Linux software, high quality software at that. Thus I have no moral objections to their activities.
You have to realize that this is really a symptom of others not putting in the required time and effort to produce a better alternative. I know because I reinvent things regularly just because I enjoy it. People underestimate by many orders of magnitude the effort required to make something like this.
So I'm really thankful that I got systemd, despite many valid criticisms. It's a pretty good system, and it's not proprietary nonsense. I've learned to appreciate it.
