I was comparing the approach, not the products.
The context matters, doesn't it? Like it or not, systemd is essential for moderns Linux systems by design, it's necessary for them to work. You can't say the same about recall. Comparing the approach without comparing the products is unfair.
And yet moderm linux systems existed prior to systemd, as modern windows exited without recall... Yes i can say the same. You can run linux without systemd (ask Gentoo, Devuan, Slackware and others) and you can run windows without recall. The dependency is forced and artificial.
It's almost as if standardization under Systemd can be beneficial. Still, I'm not a fan of the monolithic approach.
