"Haters", "Debunking": This is loaded language.

The past being seen as deficient is nothing but propaganda and prejudice. To quote Nicolás Gómez Dávila: "Our contemporaries denigrate the past so that they do not commit suicide out of shame and nostalgia."

An init successor should have been designed by someone capable -- not an inexperienced programmer like Poettering with a horrible track record.
