Well, it is not one bin.
There is no monolithic systemd bin that does everything.
There are a lot of separate bin files for all the different tasks.
Well and if you don’t want to use timers, then don’t and just use cron instead.
If you don’t want to use journald, then just don’t and use rsyslog or whatever you want.
Don’t need systemd-homed? Well, then don’t use it.
You want to configure your network with something else then systemd-networkd? Great, do it if you want.
The Poettering Army will not come and force you to enable all the options 😜

Except, they are. Pottering is the front man who does the dirty work for IBM and Microsoft to take over Linux by forcing distros to adopt systemd.
Those of us old enough to remember the “vote” that resulted in Debian going to Systemd remember it was almost at gunpoint.
Death to systemd, long live FOSS culture
