is systemd really more complex ?

Systemd is 245K lines of C while sysvinit is about 10K SLOC and about 2K
of bash scripts on LFS. Draw your own conclusions.
I just finisched building my BLFS-Systemd and it is working like a charm. It
was, sure, a little different to build. But more complex ?
Not to build, but if there is a problem, debugging can be a challenge.
It is faster, in my opinion. I agree, this does not need to be an argument.
How much? Have you measured? Is it significant? My HW was indeed
faster with systemd ... about 8 seconds instead of 10 seconds.
Does the loss of flexibility or ease to change matter?
One question is, is it worth to be defined as the new system on LFS ? if yes,
what are the arguments ? Or is it just an alternative ?
I personally dont understand why "systemd flame wars" happened.
You have not looked very much. The above link may give some insight.
I'll note that systemd seems to be the trigger that is creating a Debian
