You might want to ease back on that one a little, it turns out that the

'Our'? We all have different priorities.
OK, the language was dramatic rather than pathetic, but fairly
descriptive. All kinds of system software *is* being pulled together
under the 'systemd' badge, and inevitably will one day stop functioning

dispassionately. Maybe it's a good thing, but good or bad, it's worth
being continuously aware of.
