I think that Debian's plan to allow multiple init systems (irregardless of which one is default) is a bad plan. The non-default ones won't get any love - at some point they'll just stop working (or indeed, work at all).
If they break then one of two things will happen:
1) Someone will fix it.
2) No one will fix it because no one cares. If no one cares, then it being broken doesn't matter.
Killing off choice/alternatives just in case no one cares about them isn't especially helpful.
