Let's see, the real goal of systemd has nothing to do with init or
service management, but with IPC standardization, sandboxing apps and
TC/DRM support, enabling an internet app store for Linux distros.
That requires a PID 1 kitchen sink service to drive its dependency
chains deeply into userspace using at least 40 APIs.
Then just call it an "init" system and anyone opposing a luddite,
manufacture a crisis by killing services it replaces and threaten the
whole application stack. By then everyone has compared it with the old
init, a perfect foil. While everyone is arguing about init systems,
nobody will notice your original goal, but if they do just call it a
paranoid conspiracy theory.
<sigh> you're right, too unbelievable. Back to Hanlon's razor. :)
