No I am fully aware that systemd targets Linux and OpenBSD is, well, not Linux. But seriously, what's the status of init in OpenBSD? Last time I used it (around 5.2 for some odd sparc servers that didn't support anything else apart from Solaris) it was still/etc/rc.d scripts, and no respawn if a service crashed etc.
If a Poettering-like asshole was detected anywhere near OpenBSD, they would be shot down like an aircraft flying over the White House without clearance.
By no means am I an expert but systemd seems needlessly complicated. It seems that systemd was implemented for sake of change rather than addressing a true need. As others have pointed out, UNIX traditionally is a compilation of tools that each do a single thing well and play well together.

No, I don't know of any OpenBSD 'features' that involve pissing off its userbase with half-functioning, amorphous garbage code like systemd.
