Russ, It seems we don't have at all the same reading of Patrick post. Note that what's below is my comments on your comments about Patrick's comments, and do not represent my view (which I do not wish to express it more at this point).

The person who is being overly pretentious here is Lennart, not Patrick.

I didn't... And I don't think it's a bad to debunk this.

Patrick didn't deny that. He claims that Systemd author do not document what the different modules are doing, and do not separate them, because there's an agenda that is followed. Patrick isn't the first person to write this.

I'm very surprised to read this, when it appears very clear in Patrick's post that he is working on re-implement logind (and the systemd API). So, who exactly is denying the usefulness of the functionality of Systemd/Logind exactly? Russ, I would advise you to read a 2nd time this post from Patrick.
