No, the choice of this kind of core under-the-hood system components should 
be a decision of the distribution. To the user, it should be only an 
implementation detail. To the software on the distribution, it should matter 
that they can rely on the core system components being what they are and not 
have a user replace something as central as the init system.

I think it makes no sense whatsoever to even OFFER upstart in F15+ as we are 
doing. I don't see any valid reason why you'd use it over systemd.

You complain about some bugs in systemd, those should be reported as bugs 
and fixed.
