There is already a Debian with systemd, and is called Debian, while some great people out there are working hard to give us a Debian *without* systemd, which will be called Devuan. And the work of those people has been made extremely difficult by the fact that systemd is not designed to be pluggable on and off, and the systemd developers keep answering "won't fix" to any request for compatibility with other init system and low-level system daemons. They are definitely determined to go their way, whatever the cost of it, because they think that systemd is "right and technically sound". So why should we waste man-power on allowing to use systemd in a distribution whose first aim and motivation is to provide a systemd-free GNU/Linux?!?!?
