Actually one of the biggest problems with systemd is its refusal to cooperate with other system components. Need a binary log format? Let's write our own! Need a database? Let's embed our own! Interoperate with ConsoleKit? Nah, we'll just reimplement a replacement.

I don't know about the rest, but AFAIK, ConsoleKit wasn't maintained anymore.

Given that the second most prolific committer to the ConsoleKit git repository is a certain Lennart P. it is reasonable to assume that the systemd people did not decide to implement logind from scratch because of NIH syndrome.
