I think for many people who are dissatisfied or angry, systemd didn't simplify things. Many people have simple use cases, and for them it made things much more complicated. Monolithic, incomprehensible, unintrospectable. It is like a modern car engine which is just a sealed black box under the hood, full of electronics. Sure, it works great, it is progress compared to before, everything is there for a reason. But you can't easily fix things yourself. And for many people, the old kind of engine was good enough.
I mean, for my simple uses, what is wrong with `sudo service nginx restart`, or `sudo killall nginx`? For many people, it is really dead simple. I get that it is not simple for everybody, but that is why we should have choice, not one-size-fits-all.
