My explanation for the lack of technical (rather than political) articles examining systemd is that it's very difficult to wrap your mind around because it carries so many ideas. A quote from an article linked within the linked article: > All of the above definitions are technically correct. None of them are complete. > It is thus that debates are doomed to go nowhere, as no one can agree on a single definition of systemd, and the developers have been largely unhelpful in that matter. Vagueness can be a strength, in that it allows for people to divide and conquer, but it is also unproductive and leads to unnecessary bloodshed. Slowly, surely, people will begin to understand what systemd is. Only then will people be able to figure out whether they want it or not.
