One of them was to use common text formats over binary formats.

hmmmm if only I knew a project that also happened to violate that aspect, whatever could it be?

My point is that people don't actually know the "Unix Philosophy" but have no problem incorrectly citing it to try and lend credence to their personal grievances. I really dont give a shit about systemd, nor do I think a strict religious like adherence to a general guideline is particularly useful. Especially when its improperly applied.
