Given enough time, Theo de Raadt and his band of very merry men will
reimplement they didn't originally write. Which makes them preciously
little different from all the other bands of "Can't understand any code
written in a style different from my own! What a fucking mess!! Let's
start from scratch and do it right this time!!!" people, the self-styled
'systemd cabal' included.

Also like all these groups, they have a large group of non-developer
fans who firmly believe that their code alone is magic(ally free of
bugs) and anybody else's efforts are futile.
