Nothing silly about it. Devuan was born from systemd bashing. And
poettering's latest idea is another complexified interaction burr that
will, if accepted in the general Linux world, increase the level of
incompatibility between Devuan and the rest of the world. Which means
Devuan needs even more developers to work around those additional
incompatibilities.

On the other hand, if poettering fails, Devuan's mindshare goes way up,
because the VUAs were the first and pretty much only to put their code
where their mouths were.

What I *do* suggest is that we aim more of our systemd-bashing at the
proper people at IBM, so that maybe we can have a good result. Which is
why I asked for which people at IBM should be written to.
