Every time I see someone point out a problem with systemd the response always seems to be "that's just <subcomponent>, and using it is optional".

Why can't systemd developers/apologists take responsibility for their bad design and horrible decisions?

Because Ubuntu become massively successful with its bad designs and horrible decisions, so now they have imitators.

Except Ubuntu did it by being good first and then attract a bunch of coattail riders to run the ship aground. Systemd got it backwards.

What does Ubuntu have to do with this?

What exactly are these fatal Ubuntu flaws?

Another example of a defective software product with an egotistical maniac at the helm (Mark Shuttleworth)?

Unity? Upstart? Mir? The Amazon Shopping lens? A general failure to listen to the very community Canonical markets as a selling point? A terminal case of Not-Invented-Here syndrome? An inability to prevent any Ubuntu-derived device (Ubuntu for Android, Ubuntu TV, and Ubuntu's mobile edition thus far) from being more-or-less commercial flops stuck permanently in development hell until they become vaporware?
