The sole fact that you consider anything else than systemd as "a
lesser" option and that would like to see "some competition going"
confirms how different are the views, the motivations, the objectives,
and the dreams on the two sides of the surreal barricade that
systemd-lovers have built around themselves. As if a
"systemd-vs-the-rest-of-the-world" war was going on.

The story is much more simple and straight than you can imagine: we
are not paid to allow RedHat gaining full control of the Linux server
market, we don't like systemd (yes, there are people who don't agree
with you), we don't buy the systemd propaganda, and we are doing our
best to get around it. We have nothing to show to the world. There is
no competition to enter. No prize to be won. No opponent to be
massacred. Just the necessity to find an alternative to what we
consider pure insanity.

Go conquer the world with your little software-engineering
masterpiece, but please leave us poor cavemen in peace.
