or boot when an unimportant partion fails to mount during boot up.

I think that list can be made quite long, I can over see some stupid 
design flaws, but the thing that horrifies me most is the huge amount of 
serious security vulnerabilities that has already been discovered in 
systemd and those will just be more the more things it eats up, also 
reading some of the comments in the code just makes me think of a bunch 
of Indian developers who has no grasp of what they are doing.
