    We had reasonable building blocks before systemd...

      I think we just have different ideas of what the word "reasonable" means.

        I don't think anyone seriously defends sysvinit.

        However upstart was totally reasonable.

          Nobody even uses sysvinit. When people say they use sysvinit, they actually mean a pile of ad-hoc shell scripts that have no relationship to sysvinit.

            Fair point.
