That is not strictly true. You simply have to have access to the ServiceManager. Implementing Serviceable means you will provide a service() method that will cause the container to call your component to give it the ServiceManager (assuming your component is configured). This is by far the easiest way to do this, but if you have access to some other component that implements Serviceable you can call a method in it to retrieve its ServiceManager reference.
