I am not trying to say that POSIX should be enough (it was only an example).
To quote myself: "Usually this level of uniformity is achieved only through standardization and consensus," I'm trying to draw a contrast between how one-true-way things have become adopted and how the systemd-one-true-way things are being spread (i.e., not by standardization, not by first achieving a consensus).

I'm fairly sure that the systemd developers had discussions with multiple distributions about how to go about things. Sure, maybe the niche distros weren't in the discussions, but going and talking to *every* distro maintainer would mean that we'd still be waiting on whether /run is viable.
