The argument is really that given that systemd as a project does a hell of a lot, it's actually really hard to replace bits of it - as people who are trying to are quickly finding out, there's a few dependency trees for various components which end up requiring that systemd manages most layers of the system. So you either use all of systemd, or as little of it as possible.
According to Lennart Poettering himself, udev is going to end up depending on systemd being the init system. udev! It'll be damn near impossible to replace systemd then. (And anybody who wants to use anything else, or even have the choice to use anything else, is a "systemd-hater".)
