Hmm, it’s hard to draw any conclusion though, because systemd can do
things concurrently, so perhaps the process startup slowness is
invisible because it’s able to perform other startup work while waiting
for daemons.  (It also spawns fewer daemons because some of these are
subsumed by PID 1.)

Who knows!
