I have now produced a Devuan 'init-diversity' spin for anybody interested:
https://archive.org/details/Devuan-5.0_xfce_init-diversity-edition_amd64_UNOFFICIAL_20240319/
This comes with 5 different inits (sysvinit - s6-rc - s6-66 - OpenRC - runit), 4 of which boot from live iso, OpenRC won't boot live but will install & operate as intended while installed.

Credits for this should go to all contributors & testers of the original antiX-23 “init-diversity” spins, especially anticapitalista of antiX, aitor of Gnuinos & Eric Vidal of Obarun.
