I exhaled from my nose, but at the end this joke doesn't seem fair.
I've been running Artix for years, because I wanted to try it out for fun and now am too lazy to switch, cause most things just work. I update weekly just fine and sometimes I have to write an init file for openrc.
The biggest pain point was when I was trying to debug an issue which crashed KDE and realised that there is no journalctl ofc.
Like with most technology, init should be based on use-case.
Some setups are not made for quick reboots and that’s ok. When all your container does is run ddclient you might find that even cron can work just as well as systemd.timers
