I never had strong feelings about systemd, and the first time I used it I did prefer the service files to sysvinit scripts.
The real wow moment came when discovering socket activation which allowed systemd to take care of zero downtime deployments of web applications - for me that was reason enough to support the project.
Nowadays I'll use a container orchestrator to achieve the same thing, bit it was a good couple of years whilst it lasted.
