I kind of wanted to mention it as what I think is a better alternative but I feared it would label me as a systemd propagandist (given the polarising nature of it, even though personally I think it’s advantages outweigh the - often philosophical - drawbacks).

I think that anyone can recognize it as a good alternative for Ubuntu, since Ubuntu already uses systemd (and that's a done deal).

I'd consider myself a pragmatist, so I like systemd because it makes my life easier with the declarative configuration and other nice features (although I recognize that it makes some people's lives harder).
