Given the content i don't think i would take any of his claims at face value.

BTW, the email seems to have been cross-posted between LKML and a couple of debian lists.

I also wouldn't take at face value any of Poettering's claims that systemd-shim can accommodate sysvinit for awhile, either. Especially not after his (Poettering's) flaming gambit against Torvalds lst week and saying that "open source is 'sick', kernel community 'awful'"!!

Second 'truth': 3 + 1 = 4

Yes, 2 'truths' can be true.
