True, but chances are that, with systemd deployed on more Debian machines, somewhere something will break, and be fixed, and systemd (and Debian) will be the better for that. This is just how things work with free software.

People often accuse the systemd developers of »not taking Debian's needs into account«. Regardless of whether this is in fact true or not, the obvious way to fix this is to become more active in systemd development on Debian's behalf. The more systemd is used within Debian, the more enhancements and bug fixes will be contributed to systemd from Debian, and the more influence Debian will have on systemd development. Again, this is just how things work with free software.
