Disagree; lead with a positive, say Enjoy Your Init Freedom
List of good points, then
"Don't get stuck with systemd" and list of other bad points.

IF is just if/what if/etc in my mind and init-freedom is somewhere
in the long list of 2LAs.

IME, a positive spin opens the mind for education and the
points as to the benefit of 'init freedom' to people who do not
usually think about it.

A negative feed only connects with the already aware and rarely
converts people unless they are aware that you can learn by examining
the negative.
