Writing new implementations of the systemd interfaces for systems which don't use systemd seems reasonable, but I think it's interesting there was a need to reimplement the timedated interface on a system that does use systemd and supports no other init. I wrote a replacement for the systemd-timedated service for Fedora. The reason was simple, it could no longer control other NTP clients than systemd-timesyncd (which technically is just an SNTP client). With timedatex, users can now enable and disable with the "NTP sync" checkbox in GNOME any NTP client as was originally supported by systemd-timedated. https://github.com/mlichvar/timedatex https://github.com/mlichvar/timedatex

Last time i read anything about that, they had gotten bogged down dealing with logind.
