I admit I am just now starting down the rabbit hole of "understanding
init systems" ... so this may be a dumb question.

Is it possible during setup to choose the init system on the fly? I
mean, we can choose Cinnamon / Mate / xfce / etc for the DE as it is (or
all of them - although I expect having multiple competing init binaries
is bad).

Or are the various init systems "too different" from one another to
allow this?
