I hard disagree. Previously I could use what I knew about Linux commands to read logs and administer the systemm. Systemctl knowledge does not generalize.

I have done scheme all my life, which is why I prefer shepherd. Not only is it in a syntax that i can use elsewhere, I get completion in Emacs.



To continue on this: info use systemd on most of my systems. I dont mind. But despite having used it for about 14 years, I still have to read the manual of journalctl.

Systemctl is OK, but I really do not like that respect of the utilities.
