Considering the bias nature of the question, I presume that the polling represents a representative solution -- and that any solution will proportionately represent the numbers.
I.e. for those not wanting any alternative -- no compatibility packages would be installed.
Versus, representing the majority who who didn't vote for no choice, a compatibility solution would available for installation.
First question should be "Do you want to allow alternatives to systemd". Saying "any" makes it sound like there could be only 1. The world 'any' brings up a binary totality that only systemd claims. Ex. Can you think of any solution? (Makes it sound like it is some big thing to allow ANY other possible solution, while the desire is to allow not require a choice of "a" or "b", but have a framework that supports multiple choices.
Currently, choice "C" is the only possibility for those who realize that having a choice of only Democrats or Republicans is only being allowed to vote for 2 sides of the same coin. Is that really a choice?
Note: those in political science will note that having a 2 party system where the winner takes all is one of the worst forms of "representative" government. Unless you are considering that the answer represents a proportionate representation of what the final solution should be -- which leads to the initially proposed interpretation.
1] Last time I edited the poll the results were reseted. I'd rather not to repeat that. 2] How relevant the results would be when we'll change the answers and keep results? 3] Create your own poll if you think there is need for that and if that can help anyhow. I expected to discuss options more after showing that people want the change. Best regards, S_W
