IMO mixing systemd and sysvinit like done in 12.1 is very bad

fallback from systemd.

Well, yeah, it is in transition mode, maintaining 2 separate init
systems is a royal pain in the ass, something that no-ones wants to
do,

Yup but maintaining both _plus_ keeping both behavior in sync is even
more pain and not even possible as you see in 12.1.

at some point sysvinit will go away,hopefully in 1 or 2 release
cycles.

Decoupling sysvinit and systemd would make it possible to let users and
packagers decide what they want to maintain/use.
Improving systemd support should not affect current sysvinit support.
