This is a useful thought experiment. It does come from a position of
ignorance and fear, but there's no need to address those things.

Get a solid answer to the question: If it became necessary, how
difficult would it be to downgrade Devuan to Debian to gain systemd for
those theoretical ignorant and inept future sysadmins?

If it's easy, perhaps because no significant init stuff is customized
and no software requiring systemd is used, then the initial thought
experiment's concern has been alleviated and Devuan can be considered.
