So, how should this be used to 'opt out of systemd completely'?

You can use it to prevent ebuilds from installing unit files
or open-rc scripts from doing so (based on what you want to opt-out of).
Well, no offense, but that is gobbledy-greek to non programmers.
I would have no idea *how* to 'prevent ebuilds from installing unit
files...'.
If this really is 'the one true way' to 'totally opt out of systemd',
then in my opinion there should be a very thorough example of *how* to
'opt out of systemd' included in the man page.
Side-question...
I'm wondering if one of the reasons that the dev who was making such a
big deal of this was mainly concerned about the 'slipper slope' factor,
and saw some writing on the wall that the systemd devs were just playing
nice just to get their foot in the door, then were going to pull some
tricks to force changes that would eventually result in *everyone* (even
those using eudev) to *have* to switch to systemd some time in the future?
Not saying this is how it is, but I'm more than a bit concerned about this.
