Because it's a configuration file, not a script.

You mean the service unit and a binary executable that is the daemon,
right?

s6 operates the same way as sysvinit, only s6 run scripts are
MUCH less complex than sysvinit init scripts.

In s6 you don't, unless you have a finish script to define what happens
when the daemon terminates.

Yeah, meaningful comments: What could *possibly* go wrong? With s6 and
runit, if you want runlevels (and I don't), you achieve them with
directories that can be symlinked.

Huh?

One other thing: Although I prefer sysvinit to systemd (by a wide
margin), I'm not against using multiple files to do something. Truth be
told, with sysvinit I'd rather they have multiple files for start,
stop, restart and the like, than the typical 100+ line behemoths
exhibited by sysvinit and OpenRC.

I have a suggestion. The Obarun distro comes stock with the s6 init,
together with some helper software called "66". I suggest you install
Obarun somewhere, and add a couple daemons of your own. You'll see
exactly what files are necessary, and exactly what the supervisor part
of s6 does, and you can let us all know.

Thanks,
