Imagine systemd swallowing package management, doing automagic
security updates and such a "MSLinux" monoculture.

You mean polkit?
Wouldn't that be similarly vulnerable?

Maybe, any complex solution is open to vulnerabilities. I
think (hope) these changes would be tested better than
crowdstrike was. But as things get more complex, the harder
to test :(

I still think these changes Red Hat is pushing is their way
to make things easier for admins, but to me, eventually you
end up with a Windows clone. Now I wonder if they will "AI"
systemd, I think it is possible since IBM seems to be
getting into AI.
That sounds like a nightmare. AI Systems...
IMO "MSLinux" everywhere would have the same problem.
I think redundancy, diversity and reducing complexity is the right
answer.
