What kind of issues? Can't they be worked around?
Why moving part of the code to a different program would not be a
problem too?

For a start, I object on principle to changes requested by the
maintainers of other packages who cannot clearly show that changing my
package instead of their package is the right thing to do.
Then I object to changes I do not understand, because udev is complex
and its init script is very complex, so I do not want to have in my
package some important code whose implications I do not know about.
