I just created my own OS, with my own init system that does things how I think it should be done--and it does it every time, without the bizarre bugs that come from Linux Puttering's shitware code.
It's the same thing any corporation should be doing if they were smart, instead of outsourcing everything to RedHat, Microsoft, Google, etc.
The reality is unit files are more portable than init scripts, regardless of what anyone says.
Systemd unified and simplified administration across a lot of distributions. Before, it was a hodge podge, and there was a lot of knowledge lost going from rhel to Debian.
