*Which does not answer my question.*
I'm well aware that neither RMS or Linus do not advocate that "Linux,
kerenel and userland" are UNIX, not have to be "the UNIX way".
I'm asking why people keep insisting that systemd is bad
*because it's not the UNIX way*.
It sounds like a strawman - but I'm giving the benefit of the doubt and
asking for clarification.
I'm uncertain of your intention/comprehension of the question Frank -
but your response is not an answer to my question.
