Revised my opinion a little after a bit more reading ..
- Choice 3: A: Support for multiple init systems is Important (compromise 1)
- Choice 4: D: Support non-systemd systems, without blocking progress
(compromise 2)
- Choice 6: E: Support for multiple init systems is Required (ideal)

However, it is a very complex issue and important maybe
to understand the driving force w/o getting too much into
the field of conspiracy.
(Even though 2013-19 were the years of the proven conspiracies.)

Devuan’s take on the vote in a post, as Debian is essential for Devuan and all
other distributions based on it willing to provide a non-systemd system.

In this sense, KUDOS to Debian and hopefully they can make the right
choice[tm] ;-)
