Sure, it needs to be taken care of and the creator of that page recognize that when they say "We do recognize the need for a new init system in the 21st century". Systemd is trying to do TOO MUCH, instead of being a part of a larger system it's trying to become the system. Ad I don't like it, because I don't like tight coupling.

PS: as an alternative you could use a tmpfs to move /var/log (and other log directories) to RAM on an SSD system. Far less configuration required, in my experience. And it works with every *nix out there.
