Just provide both options. Try to make choice possible.

And that's the way to organise the voting. Let the users decide by
what they choose to use. And if they choose both, which seems to hava
happened with emacs and vi, provide both.
I have both emacs and vim on my system. I usually use emacs (decades
of finger training), but I have on occasion used vim, and my son uses
it exclusively.
I have no problem with that.
But making systemd optional seems, well, difficult. It wasn't that
hard when systemd was just an init system. But it is now.
