The answer is certainly the same as for the rest of systemd: the old
system had terrible flaws and needed to be replaced, and while the Libre
Software developers were busy arguing each for their pet project that
fixes about half the flaws while ignoring the other half or even
pretending they are features, the industrial bulldozer of Red Hat
arrived with systemd, that not so much fixed all the flaws as made them
irrelevant by the virtue of replacing the board of snakes and ladders
with a board of hungry hungry hippos with its own different set of
flaws, but at least that more or less worked out of the box.
