The problem with this statement, is that in general, those<br>
"architechural reasons" apply even more strongly to the<br>
duct-tape-and-bailing-wire stuff that systemd replaces.<br>

I also find this attitude particularly hilarious, because, in general,<br>
the "alternatives" (eg BSDs) are even worse by the same criteria that<br>
makes systemd supposedly so awful.<br>
