For sure it is possible for a distro to ship with different init system. The thing is the maintainers would have to jump through hoops to support all init systems and keep the init scripts and all the distro specific handling up to date. And for now most distribution maintainers decided that it is not worth the hassle. For reference did you try to write an init script for a piece of software in SysVInit, systemd and OpenRC to be able to compare them? Cheers, Andrej
