Wouldn't it be more 'do one thing well' if you had a 'super' inetd setup that can start services in a better way than with individually packaged (by different packagers in most cases) shell scripts that are going to run as root?
inetd versus xinetd -- I thought that was an excellent change. It was closely targeted, well documented, and did indeed do one thing well: accept connections and pass them off to a handler. I'm not so sure about systemd yet. I've not tried to create a daemon of my own to run under the setup. I have tried to use upstart, and found the execution of upstart (CentOS 6) didn't match the documentation. Further, there was no "here's how you go from sysvinit to upstart" that made sense. I did see that systemd *does* have a paper for people needing to move from the old sysvinit to systemd, which is a plus on the surface. I'll be trying that in the future.
