Loud doesn’t mean numerous. Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, Fedora, Arch, and Manjaro take up almost all of the desktop install market.

Yeah, and it's a big market... all 6% of it.

My point was, systemd is not the only init system, there are others. Just because it's used by over 90% of the Linux distros out there, doesn't mean it's the only one, thus offering a solution that is tied to systemd is not exactly a solution. Grub already has it figured out, why complicate things further.
