Always same misconception
devuan is not about depoetterizing, it's about freedom of choice. Since
systemd deprives user from his freedom to choose init system (and a lot of
other subsystems) it has to go. For the rest devuan doesn't care - as long as
it doesn't as well introduce conflicts with alternative packages.

Maybe we can discuss the *defaults* devuan suggests during installation time,
but afaik that's not a topic for now, simply because of priority and workload
vs available manpower.
toto titi: Feel free to create "NoLen Linux" based on devuan, that's what
devuan is made for. I'm eagerly waiting for such NoLen distro :-) Saves me
some time during installation.
