What good is being able to install sysvinit if it doesn't run your services? Debian killed first-class sysvinit, the downgrading of Debian/kFreeBSD is proof enough.

(And more importantly it killed all other well-behaved cooperative init options - this isn't about systemd vs sysvinit, it's about systemd vs standards-based init systems that play nice)

Devuan is still an option.
