It is certainly a deep and wide ranging thread. When looked at from the
10,000 foot view it does look like the dbus/systemd people have painted
themselves into a corner and are trying to push an ill-conceived and
incomplete hack into the kernel to try and work around it. It seems to
have very little tangible benefit and lots of warts all over the place.

Hopefully it does not get legs and people spend some time coming up with
a well thought out alternative solution that works for more than systemd
lock in. I don't hold a _lot_ of hope however.

Regardless, Devuan is a step in the right direction.
