Sorry, I'm not deep enough into it to determine why systemd would be better. Perhaps it's not. I know it's less unix-y, but we shouldn't treat that as holy imho, it's a good guideline though, I try to follow the unix philosophy.
Just saw Lennart Poettering speak at Fosdem and perhaps it’s even more Unix-y then system V init :)
And all the system managers that followed UNIX philosophy failed in being as straight forward as systemd, you know, the whole point of that Unix philosophy is to be more straight forward
Here, "system managers" and "straight forward" are pretty loaded terms...
