Hey, systemd has to be shipped when it's immature because you need users to try it out and help catch all the bugs and insecurities. Now you say battle hardened code is a myth.

Sure, people should audit their own tools, but there are also casual users. And there are indirect users. They are entitled to enjoy the better (if not perfect) security provided by battle hardened code.

I'm not sure why you're attributing that argument to me, but please don't fall into the habit of merging all the people who disagree with you in a thread into some kind of intellectual chimera.

I've even said above I agree with criticisms that systemd didn't plan and was deployed too early and too fast.
