Also in regards to kernel development, monolith is a overloaded term.
A microkernel shoves as much crap into user space as it can, a monolithic kernel does not. It doesn't mean its architecture has to be monolithic, the Linux kernel is proof of that.
For all of the different processes in systemd, they might as well be shoved in one process because that is exactly the effect that it gives having all its processes tightly coupled to each other.
If people could pull out BS like the logger and login and seamlessly add their own sane processes, the complaints would mostly disappear. Instead, you have to take the binary logger and use that buggy mess to forward it to a sane text logger.
If you systemd apologists can't see how any of this is poor design and detrimental to linux you simply lack the technical knowledge and should stop white knighting for that idiot poettering.
