I'm not going to quote Armin's message but answer a couple of points.

A lot of the ideas in systemd are good. It's the implementation that sucks. Why can't we just substitute journald for syslogd? Why do we have to have a different init to go with it?

Why does Gnome now insist on systemd?

Is systemd useful on a LAMP server that does not have X?

The UNIX Philosophy is not obsolete. It's a lot easier to get a small program right than a large one. It's also easier to find problems and fix them. Anyone who has studied Software Engineering will understand that.

Xorg is a dinosaur that needs to be redesigned and replaced. That is being done, but it really should have nothing to do with systemd.
