the image of linux is /not/ what will cause change.

- people will switch when the annoyance of unexpected systemd behavior
outweighs the annoyance of getting rid of systemd
- developers will stop using it when something nicer with wider support
comes along or they personally are fed up with systemd.
- distros will keep requiring it until they start losing lots of people to
distros without systemd or have enough complaints/support issues to warrant
change.

we need to make the first two things happen if there is any hope of the
third happening.
