A much closer example would be if you only had one tractor dealer available, and he decided only to carry one tractor. And that one tractor had everything in one piece - plow, disc, planter, 19 different harvesters for different crops (corn, wheat, cotton, turnips, etc.). And every time you took to the field you had to take all that with you. BTW - all of them are dependent on each other - and if the corn harvester fails, you can't plow your fields or plant your wheat. That is what systemd does.
