I mean, I'll agree with you in so far as that the wording could be improved further. But I do really, honestly think it's a good summary.

> I expect everyone here commenting is familiar with systemd. I doubt very much that anyone who was unfamiliar with systemd and read that description would then have any idea what it does or how it works.

It depends on what knowledge you expect. If someone is familiar with general init management and some programming concepts, this short summary will get them up to speed (and that's what I/we were arguing). If you grab a layperson of the street and read them this, it's obviously not going to tell them anything - but that's not the target audience.

What I value is a short summary which brings a reader, who knows the concepts and the space a software is operating in, up to speed quickly. And that's what this summary does.
