Thanks for a remarkably unbiased view on the matter. I have to object
against one part though:

I doubt this will happen. Once systemd is the default on Deban/GNU
Linux, people will stop testing their init scripts, or they will even
stop shipping init scripts, leaving the task of writing or testing
init scripts to the non-Linux porters, which will of course decrease
their quality since init scripts should be written and tested by
people knowing the initted software very intimately.
