Just the PID 1 manager is multiple times larger in LoC than any alternative. There is no metric in which systemd is more lightweight that I could find.

I'm not sure this is true in practice, if we're counting init scripts themselves. Which we should, because init scripts are code and they often re-implement standard systemd features. Usually in wonky, broken ways.
