Perhaps I didn't phrase it correctly. Logically, a "non systemd" |
| 30 |
profile would necessitate either a systemd profile, or require the |
| 31 |
default to already ship systemd. I hadn't considered the prior |
| 32 |
existence of systemd profiles, which we currently have, so afaict the |
| 33 |
issue is mostly moot. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Choices are great until the existence of other choices infringes on |
| 36 |
mine. Profiles prevent that, so I have no problem with systemd |
| 37 |
profiles. The problem lies with evangelists who aren't happy with |
| 38 |
systemd being *a* choice. They want systemd to be *the* choice, *the* |
| 39 |
default. That is what I take issue with. |
