Crazy thing is that the starting point for systemd makes more sense on desktops than servers, unless one is redefining servers as cloud loads of containers rather than something sitting in a rack somewhere doing work (not to say that is not the ultimate destinies for containers as well, but there is a layer of isolation involved that lead container "admins" to not really consider the hardware side of things). Hell, it seems that only as systemd people started talking up nspawn as a way to do containers did the business side sit up and take notice. Before then it was mostly considered a bikesheding runaround between nerds.
