There's nothing wrong with multiple implementations.   What's wrong is that there is no tight integration between the various configuration agents on Linux, and this breaks badly as soon as your network gets interesting.   It's better now than it use to be, but it's still all held together with bubble gum and bailing wire, and it falls apart at the slightest excuse.
