If my GR passes we will only have to have this conversation if those
who are outvoted do not respect the project's collective decision.

If my GR fails I expect a series of bitter rearguard battles over
individual systemd dependencies.

That's not the problem.  The problem is the possibility of packages
wich requires systemd's syslog replacement, its cron replacement, or
its ntpd replacement.

The problem is the prospect of having to switch init to systemd in
order to get some package's spport for network time working properly,
or whatever.

This is what system's opponents are calling `lock-in'.  I agree.
