You mean they don't officially provide support for them, even though you can choose to use a wide variety of init's.

Regardless, there are other distros that don't use systemd by default. Choose one of those if you have it in your head systemd is causing you some sort of pain (it isn't...).

You can but you'll have to configure the startup of every package yourself.
