I tend to agree with the idea that the choice of defaults belongs to the distro's. If the distro's are deferring to the upstream project on default settings for a critical system component then they need to be more thorough and validate what they are shipping.
- v_lisivka 8y agoMaintaining of all these special cases requires lot of knowledge. If maintainer is responsible for just systemd package, then it's not a problem, but when number of packages per maintainer is measured in hundreds, maintainer will stick to defaults, unless users will complain loudly enough to sacrifice whole working day on the problem.

Then maybe the init system should be simpler and not attempt to ingratiate itself with UEFI or attempt to replace su, sudo, syslogd, netcat, resolvconf, etc.
