They can ship as much trash as they like, so long as it doesn't become my problem.

Those components become my problem when the distributions I choose to use choose to adopt them, and then I have to work around them.



Choose something else then. If there is one thing the world is not lacking it is Linux distros.


As a hobbyist, sure. It's not quite that simple when I have commercial apps I need to run in a regulated environment.


There's nothing about regulated environments or commercial apps that limit your choice to "systemd on Linux".

Everything is a tradeoff.


Those apps and the system's accreditation requirements limit my choice to a particular vendor's ecosystem so yes, they do.

Otherwise I could avoid Linux entirely if I so chose, and make the systemd consideration irrelevant.
