Why update if you want to keep linux as it is? I am sure there are a few LTS distros around that will stay systemd free for the next few years.

BY which time we'll know if it is really so bad or if it is actually an improvement.

I doubt Red Hat (which has to actually sell it's OS and still flogs a load of Red Hat 6) will carry on pushing it if it really turns out to be a turd. (Yes I know where the main author works).
