Your points are well taken. Linux is far from perfect and people shouldn't worship it. sysvinit is inferior to BSD init in my view and there are other questionable design decisions.
The biggest problem is that people are being railroaded into one thing or the other by the strong arm of corporations instead of being given options. My system helps with that.
I won't support systemd/wayland/etc, but others easily can add that in to their version of the distro if they like and support it themselves without too much work, as it's designed to be forked by anyone.
