This appears to be a non-Systemd Debian, like Devuan, oriented to desktop use.

It does have systemd, but it's disabled by default, and instead used sysvinit. The wiki says fire versions 14-17, but the blog post basically saying that it would stay that way for 19

OK, then I do not understand any relevant difference between MX and Debian.

A few minutes' digging does not reveal an objective reason to pay attention to yet-another-Debian-fork. Anybody who wants adoption should have a good story about why it might be a better choice for the reader than, e.g., Debian, in an easily-found place.
