Let me put this as genteelly and carefully as I can.
The desire to make an "Official" linux, is a very bad desire. It should always be shouted down.
Please allow me to explain why.
The desire is intrinsically incompatible with the philosophy of open source software, and intrinsically incompatible with the *nix philosophy, of doing one thing, and doing it well. The standardization of *nix software is not at the OS level. It is at the application and interface level. This allows maximal flexibility for configuration and deployment, for specific use-case scenarios, which is precisely when, where, and how Linux deployments excel.
It is this conflict with philosophy and use-case that drives the conflict about system-d, snaps vs Flatpak (vs APT / package manager), and numerous others.
Slashdot is infamous for the dreaded car analogy, so here it is, pre-emptively.
"Should there be a standardized automobile? Imagine if all cars on the highway were exactly the same, with exactly the same parts, and nobody had to look up makes, model, year or manufacture-- and all vehicles came stock with automatic transmission! Getting your vehicle serviced would be so much easier!"
For basically all of the same reasons why with Linux, the answer is, and should always be a resounding NO, the answer to the above is and should always be a resounding NO.
There are different kinds of consumer vehicle for a reason, even though all of them (for the most part) are internal combustion engines, and operate on the same basic principles. Some people live out in rural environments, and greatly benefit from having manual transmissions. Having one, requires you to learn how to drive with one, and when and how one should shift gears for maximum utility to gain that advantage on those kinds of road surfaces. Enforcing this kind of ideology basically takes this kind of control away from people that have a legitimate need for it, and makes the world worse, not better.
The same is true in the computing world with bespoke servers that need to have very fine tuned performance parameters, in which small things like the logging system can have small but meaningful performance penalties (and when one might not want to have everything managed all at once by something like system-d, no matter how much the distro wants to force it.
The concept of "OFFICIAL!", implies that those situations that are not adherent to "WHAT WE SAY", are de-facto "Un-Official." This is wrong-headed, and foolish. That's like saying a manual transmission vehicle is "NON-OFFICIAL."
This then gets into the "God, I cannot believe how big of a pretentious asshole you are!" rhetoric starts.
Just like there are people that select for manual transmission vehicles, and do so for very specific reasons, which know about, and care about things like spark-advance, or fuel-mix ratios that most other drivers would not care about at all, (as long as the vehicle drives), there are people that profit, make use of, and are reliant on, the ability to take that level of control over a computer for such bespoke server applications.
I refer to the taking away, or obfuscation of such controls, as "Putting mittens on the user," because that is essentially what it is.
There are already operating systems that do this, and do so to a very shameful degree, such as Windows (which goes to great lengths to redact which programs you have associated with what tasks, just because microsoft REALLY wants you to use Edge, and not Chrome or Firefox, etc) or OSX (which goes to great lengths to prevent you from running it on non-blessed hardware.)
Both of those operating systems exist with the "Official!" mindset, and as a consequence, put the end user's hands inside mittens. (and then enforce the mittens with duct tape.) This makes them "Easier to use" for people that do not want to or have no need of such deep or fine control, but makes life very difficult indeed for the people that DO.
Linux is about the only remaining holdout for people that want or need to have that level of control, and removing the option from them, out of a misguided desire for "Standardization" (where there is already standardization on a different level, and where this kind of standardization being suggested, is not needed nor wanted) is really a very dickish thing to demand.
Please be more considerate of other people that have a legitimate need to have full, robust control over their computers.
Even in the linux world, there are distributions that cater to desktop end users, vs such "every cycle must count, so I must configure every aspect of the system, exactly as it has to be to attain that, and the system must not alter it "For me" out of "Convenience" or "Official policy."" use cases, which is why we have both Ubuntu, and Arch, respectively.
Requesting that this arrangement not be effaced is not dickish; Demanding that it be effaced, IS.
