It would be helpful for you to make clear what exactly in that pile of links is a threat to Qubes. More generally, I think you significantly underestimate the benefits Qubes receives from integration with established distributions. These distributions have more users, more developers, better infrastructure, etc. All of this contributes to security, and the infrastructure is particularly important when it comes to trusting the distributions you use for your templates. The alternative distributions have much smaller userbases. The same holds true for systemd alternatives. How long will OpenRC, or sinit, or uinit, or the latest new proposed replacement be supported? Even if systemd has some problems, I think the benefits we get from Fedora and Debian outweigh the costs.
