But to what point? Devuan was born in, OK, I'll use your
characterization, hate, of systemd. Eliminating systemd is the
cornerstone of Devuan. Sure, we're forming principles that accommodate
our refusal to use systemd, and accommodate future software fiascos,
but it's obvious that Devuan=NoSystemd.

So what is the point, on this particular list, of keeping an open mind
on the subject of systemd? I can see the point on the Manjaro list, or
the Gentoo list, or the Saybayon list, or the OpenSuSE list. But on
declared systemd-never lists like Devuan or Funtoo, or for that matter
on declared systemd-forever lists like RedHat and Fedora, what's the
point of being systemd agnostic?

Systemd-agnosticism is appropriate in most venues. But not in venues
whose very foundation is pro or anti systemd.
