If you mean compatibility with sysvinit scripts, then even before this page was written up it was expected the effort to maintain it was going to be dropped on the systemd side; which would presumably leave it up to distros if they wanted to maintain such compatibility (which is the case to a great degree on CentOS 7). http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Incompatibilities/ I think in 25 years when there is a new wizbang replacement for systemd, there will be ranting for the good old days of systemd and how it's appalling and wrong that backward compatibility not be maintained.
