You are approaching this the wrong way. James Ensor claims it is possible and easy for a user to remove systemd. Your task is to show that is not; preferably by giving a concrete technical example. Your mission is not to repeat some of the nonsense you may have read on debian-user, query the veracity of those statements and then ask someone to comment on your beliefs.
