Two local root exploits this year. So if your browser has a bug, systemd would have allowed priveledge escalation
Notice that these bugs were in logind (the console kit replacement) and not in the init daemon. They were also fixed more than 8 months ago. No one claimed that systemd never had any bugs. It even has bugs now, like all software.
We understand your decision has been made with reasonable reasons for doing so (saved effort)
For the record: I believe systemd is a technically better solution in all ways that matter, so this move is not (purely) motivated by laziness. I'd appreciate if you do not misrepresent me. -t
