No but it is kinda wrong in a more diffuse sense: depicting
Lennart Poettering as the Devil Incarnate with half-facts just
adds a lot of noise to a discussion which should be carried
with a cool head and lots of good will towards each other.

Personally I don't like systemd and have /my/ good reasons to
avoid it, but hey, Lennart is writing free software after all,
so I'm thankful for that.

/And/ when you're critizicing things, do make an effort to get
facts right. And try to be fair in your critique: there's often
a human being at the other end. Otherwise we end up being
Facebook or 4chan.

Now getting off my soapbox. Next, please :-)
