    that systemd is not one large thing, but a (large) collection of tools.

    Who don’t work without Systemd. And Systemd can’t coexist with tools in the same repo doing the same job in a portable way.

      Right. That reminds of the time I was visiting a friend who had broken his Linux computer (No, not “apt-get remove --purge systemd” but they did something slightly similar). When I booted from a live Linux, used chroot and wanted to use configure networking : FAIL because systemd was … not running. As he had no Internet because of his broken machine this caused some delays in fixing this but we got the job done eventually.
