Once upon a time, Jay Ashworth <jra () baylink com> said:
"Try to do everything *inside PID 1*" is the real problem.

And that is not what systemd is doing; make sure you know what you are
complaining about. systemd-the-project != systemd-the-pid-1. PID 1 is
responsible for managing services/daemons, and AFAIK that's all
systemd's PID 1 does.

Indeed.  I was quoting (I thought) better read people than me.  If that's the 
case, I retract about 25% of my distaste for it.
