If one runs Linux, one runs a Linux kernel. The idea that there be a single main management daemon for this single kernel seems singularly simple. I can track the angst at the loss of the "little guy" in the process, but the arguments offered in the article seem FUD. If systemd were dodgy, it would fail. Also, if systemd is really ao evil, maybe *BSD is worth a look.
