Whats wrong with Systemd? Suppose I loathe bloat and have a religious attachment to the ``Unix Philosophy'' is there a real reason for little old techno-reactionary me to explicitly dislike systemd?

No because it doesnt actually over-step its bounds and it's multiple processes not one monolithic process.
Yes because it in general forces users into one system and removes their choice, Linux's single biggest pro. It would rather "defeat" an opposing system than integrate its features with theirs taking the best from both
Now leave for 2 weeks and come back because this is the last straight answer youll get
>>2 It's multiple processes with some rather horrible dependencies between them - and also DBus.

You really shouldn't care. Linux is a toy OS. All serious platforms use BSD, usually OpenBSD. Sure, Linux is easy to puke on to an ipod nano and use zsh with the volume buttons, but if you really want security, stability, and uptimes measured in decades, BSD is the way to go. It's a tried and true platform that doesn't get changed just for the sake of change, and doesn't allow stupid shit just so the latest ElectroDildo Joystick 2GB\5GHz is supported so you can play ASCII Doom with it.
By the way, this post did address your question in the first iteration, but most of it was removed in editing.
