Yes, I agree. Since Devuan only forks a few packages and serves all
the rest directly from Debian pools, the immediate future does look
like that.

Even the forked packages will potentially "suffer" in that they
generally are maintained so as to offer all the functionality of the
upstream Debian source, other than systemd related parts. Doing
something else is a significant change to that work

Thus, at this stage at least one must put Devuan on the same shelf as
Debian in regards to containing AI slop or not.
