FWIW, I feel like your comment is responding to an implicit critique of systemd, but even if one was warranted I didn't read that comment as implying such (as the premise would just be that systemd is a key place in the stack where you would need to be super careful, not that it is somehow less careful than other projects... even if I might claim as such for at least logging ;P); it could be that I am misinterpreting your comment, though?
