IMO:

1-At the point when "Linus'" (solely I doubt) decision to proceed in fully
supporting it was committed, need and desire for what was advertised/claimed
it was and would become was valid.

2-It has been well crafted to induce resisting of support for alternative
init system possibilities, in addition to making continued support for
sysvinit virtually impossible.

3-It evolved, expanded and subsumed ravenously, a proverbial snowballing
multiplied, down a tall mountain with a steep slope, unstoppable without a
bigger than herculean effort, from an organization more powerful than the
Linux universe leviathan RedHat pushing it.

4-It does provide benfits.

5-Improvements continue to occur, and are expected to continue.
