:) I work in academia. Academics are among the most stubborn when it comes to
accepting changes to their habits. If the boot process can happen in parallel, I'm
all for it.

But the problem is not serial/parallel. It is the bloat in the boot processes.

On my System V computer's boot log:

Jan 08 16:14:10 (none)  Mounting virtual file systems: /run /proc /sys OK
...
Jan 08 16:14:14  lfs82  Starting GPM console mouse service... OK

That's 30 boot scripts in 4 seconds. What does running the boot scripts in parallel get you? Besides complexity that is.
