systemd is fine until it isn't. On my systems with systemd inits, whenever there's a problem, systemd is always involved somehow. [I had a cute one where a daemon (emacs, actually) set to start-up on boot with systemd ended up failing, which somehow caused the rest of the systemd modules to fail, with all of the modules failing silently (so the systemd tools themselves didn't tell me anything about failed units).]
