Personally, I don't mind: I prefer bash to sh and am quite happy with systemd. However, I do think that removing ksh and csh from the default setup is going too far.

Its apparently a unilateral decision rammed through by Lennart Poettering because it assumes, on apparently no evidence at all, that everybody has huge disks and that nobody will ever want to run systemd distros on the likes of RaspberryPi, or Beagleboards.
