      Article seem to have been written by a Poettering cheerleader:

"Prior to systemd every system and resource was managed by its own
tool, which was clumsy and inefficient. Now? Controlling and managing
systems on Linux is incredibly easy. "

"So, for the simple act of logging in, three mechanisms are required
(systemd, /etc/shadow, /etc/passwd). This is inefficient, and
Poettering has decided to make a drastic change."
