I don't think that's true. As far as I know, you can put S and K links to
the same script in an rcN.d directory. Init figures out whether to pass
the script a "start" or "stop" based on the S or K. Somebody correct me if
I'm wrong.
Runlevel 0 is halt, 6 is reboot. Don't think it much matters about turning
things off in a reboot or halt.
