Wow. You *clearly* don't know how NM, upstart, or systemd work, and
you don't want to put any effort into learning. And that's ok. But it
doesn't mean NM, upstart or systemd are any more complicated than the
technology they aim to replace.

This is non-sense. If you want to continue to "drive an old, slow and
unsafe car", you can just stop updating your install, or benefit only
security updates (while they last). If you want *any* sort of
progress, you've got to deal with the possibility of breakage. That's
why we have processes in place to avoid this breakage.
You can always keep using squeeze forever. Nobody is preventing you
from doing that. Expecting everyone else to do the same, though, is
ridiculous.
