it would even be fine if he was objective and didn't lie about them (saying things like "sysvinit cant set the XDG environment variable" is a pure lie)
Lennart's behaviour is probably the source of at least half the hate against systemd and PA. It's sad, because both projects are quite interesting and successful (I also happen to think PA, today, is the best choice of default audio daemon, even if jack is the obvious goto for a pro setup). I feel a bit the same way about Linus, great software, not always so great communication skills. Well, I can live with it.
Just one note regarding your points, fast startup is important in the server space if your infrastructure is based on dynamically started VMs. And people who use these techs are usually quite big consumers in the server market.
