Somebody will be "forced" to manually install the init system of their choice? How sad(TM).
Snarkiness aside, IMHO it makes much more sense to have the most-featureful init system be the default, because then those features actually get used and tested -- and thus the situation will be more reliable than if only those users/sysadmins switch to systemd who actually _are_ desperate for its features (as opposed to, say, those who are skeptics but find that they won't want to miss those selfsame features once they get used to them …). -- -- Matthias Urlichs
