IMO, the real problem with systemd has nothing to do with the supposed mental disorder affecting its developer, but with the fact that systemd control the behavior of all system services and this is what has made me look for alternatives to Linux. A very concrete example: the DHCP client of a machine doesn't behave the same way with or without systemd. When run without systemd (e.g under Devuan), the DHCP client honors all the features described in the standard. When run under the control of systemd (e.g under Debian), it just takes the IP address, netmask and gateway from the DHCP server. Simply stated, the behavior of a machine under the control of systemd is no longer predictable, you have to forget standards and RFCs and learn the systemd way.
