I already dumped sysvinit 3 years ago because runit is better for my
needs.

What I said was that if you like sysvinit, use it, but for gosh sakes
don't take the time and energy to modify it or update it or give it
systemd features.

By the way, you can use runit on top of sysvinit, which is dead bang
easy. As a matter of fact, it might be an improvement on pure runit
because you can run run-once processes from /etc/init.d/rc5.d, and run
supervised, restarting processes with runit.
