And the second sentence says:

  What it requires is a service that
  implements the same set of APIs as
  systemd-logind.
Since GNOME requires either systemd-logind or something that behaves exactly as systemd-logind, how does that not express a transitive dependency on systemd?

So what are you trying to argue again?

No, what I stated I thought was quite clear: an init system does not design nor define an Operating System.

This is orthogonal to the question you present.
