systemd is absolutely for end-users, because:

* Some systemd-running systems are home desktop computers with a single 
physical user; in this case, the distinction between "administrator" and 
"user" may well only exist as a hallucination of the computer, with no 
basis in the external physical world. If the computer I'm typing this 
e-mail on breaks down, I have to fix it myself.

* systemd can, in any event, be used to manage service-like processes 
that form part of a user's login session, using unit files stored in 
that user's XDG Base Directories.
