Would it prevent you from installing runit or s6 or Suckless Init +
daemontools-encore + LittKit or Epoch?

When I became aware of init systems as a result of Debian's 2014
misstep, one thing that amazed me was that one init system's package
would deinstall other init systems. I'm a big fan of having multiple
init systems on one box, for the same reason most people have multiple
kernels.
