oh sorry was that a wrong word choice!!!!!!!(sorry repeated char)
either way the dev has gone else where

how about the OP takes his argument to another place considering they
are off topic & here to insight argument. The only on topic part was
that systemd is coming to arch the rest is pointless noise which
itself should have been else where.

that was an attempt at humour sorry if you did not like it & if you do
not like south park but it is true

If it were my ML i would have deleted it & sent a msg to the op telling him why.
This ML is for general support not a cacophony of opinions on
something which at that point in time had not been decided upon which
has resulted in this ML becoming a mess.

Again sorry if you did not get my light hearted joke from south park
but I thought it kinda summed up the situation.
