This all reminds me of the old quote, "No man's life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session." Most times the best course to take is to do nothing. "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Those of us who objected, or were unaware, when the decision was made to adopt systemd, did too little to stop the decision from being made. The power to overcome resistance to change was stronger.
This is the problem, isn't it? The activists get their way because they are persistent, mission-driven, and maybe conflicted by outside interests and thus have goals outside of the best interests of the rest of us. They have the patience to eke out many little compromises that, when taken in aggregate later on, achieve their original goal. Meanwhile, the rest of society is just too busy getting along to notice the mess until it's too late. Things will eventually sort out, but after how much pain?
