I'll note that there's a couple of re-implementations of parts of systemd. There's Debian's systemd-shim, and the higher-level systembsd. There's also nosh, a small, simpler init system that allows for automatically converting some types of systemd unit file to its own format, which allows for configurable logging, and a few more interesting things. That's not to disagree with you entirely - I'm no fan of how systemd appears to be taking every core service and bringing it under its umbrella and forcing them to depend on systemd (udev being a particularly irritating one - "Unless the systemd-haters prepare another kdbus userspace until then this will effectively also mean that we will not support non-systemd systems with udev anymore starting at that point").
