"init system freedom" (to borrow the nonsensical Devuan catchphrase),
much like the other "freedoms" that Linux is supposedly about, applies
to those who *put together* Linux systems. As soon as you use the
system that someone else has put together, you're restricted by the
choices *they* made. If you don't like those choices, you're perfectly
free (and encouraged) to DIY and roll your own reflecting your own
choices/needs.
Can that be a lot of work? Absolutely. But if one's not willing to
undertake that effort for themselves, one doesn't get to complain about
someone else not being willing do that work either -- at least if no
money is changing hands.
