Something has to start the scripts when needed. They don't start on their own.
That's what sysvinit did. On a runlevel change, it just runs the scripts according to the alphabetical sort of the S*/K* symlinks in rc?.d/. No magic involved.
Yep. A point, though: openSUSE modified system V in a way that it ignored all the symlinks in those "level" directories. It used another method, which I will not explain here; but anybody interested can look it up in the documentation for openSUSE 11.4, for instance, which I believe was the last release to use that method. The change came with parallelization of the starting up of the scripts, years before systemd was heard of. -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
