You can't blame CentOS for switching. Their goal is to create as close to a bit-for-bit rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux as possible.

Which strengths the original point. RHEL is suppose to be rock-solid. systemd is not (technical issues aside, it's new and should be vetted more thoroughly), and I have no idea why RH and Debian are staking so much on it. That's what bothers me.
RH can get away with it because they still offer support for the RHEL 6.x line.

Debian ramming systemd into stable like they did on the other hand...

I can't believe you wrote this with actual seriousness. The debate took place over an entire year.
Debate, sure. But how long did it sit as default before it officially shipped?
