The largest Linux user is Android, which I don't think uses systemd. The kernel does not care. You can use emacs as your init for all the kernel cares and handle all your udev messages in emacs lisp. The kernel does not care. Indeed if the kernel did care about whether someone used systemd, forked Debian or wanted to run emacs lisp as their init then it would mean the architecture was wrong. It's simply not the kernel's problem what people run as init and if Debian wishes to divide into two distributions (Deb and Ian perhaps...) then this is the wrong list for that debate.
