The moral isn't "Don't use systemd", the moral is "Write stuff in better languages than C". rsyslog doesn't exactly have an enviable security record either.

I'd love to see more of our core functionality written in the safe subset of some other language such as Rust. I fear Haskell and Go have too much 'runtime' to really want to be at the systemd level, but who knows :-D

I fear I've been burned by software written in Go one two many times to just snap it up, but I'd be interested at least.
