Agreed. We should ditch systemd and return to systemv. I agree with this. :-)
What particular purpose do you envision straying further from the mainstream, and integration and compatibility with other distros, will benefit& serve?
We'll stop being lemmings and merely jump off the cliff because other distros are.
Make systemd a _dropin_ replacement for sysVinit meaning it works for all system services at boot or keep sysVinit until it does.
Has everyone forgotten all the bitching that took place when KDE4.x for forced upon us before it was ready?
Just my 3 cents.
