systemd manages cgroups on systemd based system. The systems that do not use systemd can implement their own cgroup managers. The kernel makes no assumptions on what manager you use on userspace. Other managers could also reimplement the systemd dbus API for managing the cgroups. |

True, except that the systemd developers are in charge of defining this API and have no reason to consult with other cgroups manager developers when defining it. This is, to make an analogy, equivalent to allowing Microsoft to unilaterally define all web standards from now on. The competitors are always going to be playing catch-up, and there's going to be tons of edge cases where the competitors don't quite work the same.
