It just werks 99% of the time. The few problems it brings are for the most part basically just annoyances for people used to working with something else.

  Complexity increases bugs and edge cases, and systemd core init has 300x more lines of code easily. sysvinit is rock solid, and that is easier to do with a very focused, smaller codebase. Even now for example, more than a decade after systemd appeared, simple nfs is impossible for systemd to get right. I get boxes stuck on rebnot, stuck on boot, all with syper simple nfs setups.

    Works for me. I have thousands of machines that mount dozens of nfs shares via systemd .mount files with zero issues.

      That's exactly the point. It's so complex that it's impossible to track down (and thus fix) the cause of any of its problems. What works for you does not work for someone else, and vice versa, because of some seemingly unrelated difference in how their system was built or configured (usually by their distro, often even as a result of difference between upgrade-vs-fresh install).
