Redhat is leading this and they always claim to lead the open source movement. You can see hear this a lot in any of their events, however I think this is getting out of hand, there's an OSS project which I'm trying to contribute to, and recently I saw a pull request which changes installation docs, asking to use 5-6 unit files instead of a 5 liner cron file. On another project I'm working on (sadly on RHEL7) when I unmount a mount point with a bash script systemd tries to remount the mount points and doesn't honour the fstab, because, apparently it makes its own copy of fstab ( a unit file) during boot time, and when you reload it to re-create its unit file and fstab is somehow not what it should be reboots the system to what we know as init 1. So it's nothing to do with boot times, or init systems, it's about trying to control and try to make systems work in their own way. And this usually produces unexpected behaviour and hassle. Also I don't like software trying to be clever because they mostly fail to be. My 2 cents, -- aldemir
