funnily enough, though, Red Hat failed with LSB, but systemd is, for better or worse, accomplishing much of the same goals, causing many of the same issues of poor extensibility and customizability.

The new trendy solution seems to just be having different tiers for devices that can't handle the full thing.
Customizability itself is, to some degree at odds with pretty much all of what the majority of users who are not hobbyists want, so I'm not sure it's the best plan to prioritize that.
On the other hand, the current solution of pretending that only Ubuntu and Red Hat exist and leaving other distros to figure out the compatibility for themselves seems to be a slight less restrictive de facto standard that works well for most.
