Once again this is not a technical argument, but a very subjective
reason with - at least for me - no basis. Its more of a philosophy and
that's not what this should be about.

If you *really* like an audio stack without PulseAudio (which I would
consider quite useless on a modern desktop) and an init system based
upon something as old, "stupid" and slow as SysVinit, then you are free
to stick with it. Nobody forces you to use PA and/or systemd, and you
are always free to come up with something better than that. But don't
try to force your personal agenda against Poettering onto others.

Maybe this is what it is really about: These changes come - more or less
- from Poettering and there is quite a bunch of people who for whatever
reasons don't like that idea.

Best regards,
Karol Babioch
