Thanks for announcing that people who care what init system they
are running are zealots. I had thought that I was a professional
with a valid technical point of view, but my eyes are now open.
I realize that no objection I can possibly make is worthwhile.
Perhaps I too will start making arguments that people should stop
complaining about things because they are not in the majority.
Presumably I was also wrong about politics being the alternative
to war. That can only happen when people respect each other.
