OK, you have your opinion of systemd and I have mine and they will never 
match, my opinion is that systemd is a solution looking for a problem. 
Don't get me wrong sysvinit isn't without its problems, but systemd 
isn't the solution, systemd is just getting bigger and bigger every day, 
swallowing up things it shouldn't, if want to use something like 
windows, go and use windows!
