In this case it sounds better than the GNU mount, as it makes auto-mounting much easier.

But just let's see if they dump the mount table as XML...

Don't mind the fact that redhat has ties to the military industrial complex, just move along folks nothing suspicious about systemd's ever growing list of responsibilities including network stack, init system, logging, disk encryption, device management, user logins. The Unix philosophy who cares about that now?

Using autofs was hard? News to me as a career unix sysadmin who happens to manage 10s of thousands of nodes using autofs quite successfully (and systemd to boot!)
