Can someone give me a TL;DR version of why systemd is considered harmful?

PID 1.
Single point of failure.
Hogged udev into itself and keeps spreading virally.
10k LO compiled C - non-transparent and susceptible to backdoors.
Binary logs - non-transparent.
Inflexible and M$ Windows-like.
Has too many features and keeps getting fatter and controlling more shit, limited only by its creator's desires.

For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
For want of a horse the rider was lost.
For want of a rider the message was lost.
For want of a message the battle was lost.
For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.

apple's launchd
Microsoft and Apple have always been cloning each other at every level. The Apple OS no longer resembles anything close to Unix and calling it that is a perversion of the Unix ideals.
