They could have killed the confusion early by either renaming the init (or the project), or keeping the daemons in a different place from the Systemd init code.

But instead they lump more and more into a single tree.

You can't just grab the Resolved code to look at it, you have to grab the whole Systemd ball and then extract the portion related to Resolved.

And will Resolved even function without Systemd sitting as the init?
