It occurs to me that nobody raised the obvious questions:

1. Are we seeing upstream developers shipping systemd scripts, or
systemd scripts w/o sysv init scripts? I'm not sure I have.
2. What the heck are Debian developers (packagers, actually), doing
removing init scripts?

Me, I've been installing key packages from upstream sources for years -
avoids having to deal with out-of-date packages and such. (The basic
environment is certainly easier to install and maintain via apt - but
key production packages, hell no.)
