..say "no major problems running without systemd.", and I'll agree.

..my opinion remains we should have started from Debian Wheezy,
where those first systemd bits were snuck in, but I wasn't
around here when that major decision was made.
I still had not seen Theodore T'so have problems with systemd,
so I still believed my own problems with that, was me falling
too far behind from work with http://groklaw.net/ for about
11 years. As you may see, there were hundreds of thousands of
us doing Groklaw. It was addictive. ;o)
