Probably i'm not clear enough.
This is the philosophy side: we give freedom even to eat shit if someone
really like to.

This is the reality side: we will give shit only if we can. If we
can't, no shit, sorry.

This mean that by principes we will try to let systemd be an option
assuming that it can be done. If there is no way to have it as an option
and you must choose "or systemd in whole system or no systemd", well,
our choice will be no systemd.

Ok, assuming you right, we will try to be closer to it as feasible.

The very first file of devuan is a pinning out of systemd-sysv at -1
level pinning. This should be an answer on this.
