As usual this is about much more than you, and I am quite concerned that 
you are apparently oblivious to that.
You started by arguing that Debian should adopt/invent a custom API not 
used by any other distribution and proposed that the systemd maintainers 
work on adopting alternatives for something which the alternatives 
system was not designed for.
Since your proposal requires that other people do significant work then 
it should not be unexpected that you are being asked to justify its
usefulness.

Maybe *you* should try that and then report back your findings.
