What? I'm pretty sure runit can do init.

As for the systemd controversy, I used for a long time on Arch and it
wasn't that bad from a end user point. But when you had to modify or write
unit files, it wasn't fun. Even if most of the vocabulary is simple, the
number of keywords is simply too high; while a shell script can be understood
by anybody.
In the end, I'm now happy with Gentoo and OpenRC. Especially nice to see
that it'll be soon usable with something else than sysvinit.
