I a significant reason I avoid KDE, Gnome and Unity, is the same reason I'm trying to avoid systemd: I believe that the more everything depends on each other, the more places bugs can hide. This is why I use software like Xfce, LXDE, Openbox, dwm, etc, and stay away from the Gnome and Unity desktop environments, and KDE destkop environment *and* libraries and executables. Here's an irony for you: I moved from Ubuntu to Debian to avoid entanglement, like Plymouth and lightdm, and a couple months after I moved to Debian, I found out about systemd.
