Lennart Poettering, the author of the proposal and creator of e.g., systemd, avahi, and pulseaudio, definitely cares about workstations, I'd say.
So when I tell you the Debian community mainly cares about servers, I'm not bullshitting you and I know who the fuck Lennart is.
I liked init systems of yore. I don't ask to toss out systems because its very useful in some settings, however, I prefer the init systems we had, when it comes to my personal workstation preferences.
Sadly that ship has sailed, but it's finally 10-12 years later that there are some niceties to systemd that make it worth it to me (systemd-resolved in particular).
