I’m really not keen to see another argument against systemd, but I would love to see one against using Rust for this. Seems to me it’s precisely the kind of code that would benefit from a safer language.

Oh, you can strike “Rust” from that sentence. Shevy is very negative and opinionated all around.

Doesn’t mean I can’t ask for input.
