One of your premises seems to be equal to your conclusion. So I still don't see, how this video has anything to do with it.

This video is a sign of the systemd shims (workarounds) getting to the point where GNOME runs fully in OpenBSD.

now, if they liked SystemD, why would they create shims, rather than reimplement it in OpenBSD?

This video is a sign that either the OpenBSD/Gnome-porters are sucessfully maintaining the old non-systemd codepaths (as e.g. this https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2015-Janu... message from the guy who made the video indicates), or that they have implemented enough of the systemd-interfaces to get Gnome running.

What exactly do you mean by "reimplement it in OpenBSD" and what would be the difference to the current approach you call "shims"?
