It has already been explained that it being the default makes the
order switching irrelevant for what you recommend. If people are
using
the default init, the dependency will already be satisfied and life
will not be disrupted. The same thing should happen if people are
using a different init: that decision should be maintained unless
they
manually uninstall the package that satisfies the init package's
dependency.
Most Debian systems aren't using sysvinit by active choice, but
because
it was the default when they installed their machines, so this
argument
doesn't really make sense.
But some are, and this completely leaves them out in the cold. One
option is to put a "heads up" in systemd-sysv, or some other type of
glue so that on an upgrade, people know what is happening to their
systems.
