I've mentioned this direction of developments in my doctoral thesis https://pearl.plymouth.ac.uk/handle/10026.1/11101 where you will find a whole article dedicated to Devuan. It was published in 2018.

The systemd software is also bound to a US patent 20150040216-A1 “Systems and Methods for Restricting Application Binary Interfaces” filed by Paul Moore, Dan Walsh and Lennart Poettering on behalf of Red Hat inc.
Arguably, referring to the patent filed by its main author, systemd may adopt this approach as the underpinning of its security model: lock down the functioning of the system in a binary architecture that, despite systemd being opensource, cannot be changed (nor verified) in production environments.

This security model is advocated by Microsot since 2 decades (Palladium, TPM) and since 8th generation Intel processors it is also implemented in Windows 11.
