I haven't done much with systemd yet, but his points sound reasonable and as a sysadmin I can understand it good and would like to have some of these features, too.

It is also intersting to look at developments like #TYPO3 #Flow with a very strong Convention over configuration pattern which is also following KISS principles actually.
