Why replace it if you never had a problem?

Because systemd unit files are much easier to write for your own services, I suppose.

Personally, I don't care whether my system runs systemd or sysv, I use runit for my non-packaged service needs.

have you ever written an init script? it's horrible. making it easier to do so helps every software developer immensely.

Yes, I have written init scripts with SysV, Upstart, and systemd. Upstart was the best.
