The main thing I know about file-rc is that it's a corner case that further
breaks upgrade handling when packages need to renumber their symlinks in
/etc/rc?.d. I know "embedded" is often used as a catch-all to describe all
kinds of crackful ideas, but I'm at a loss to see how this makes file-rc
in particular appealing to anyone.
It's easy to maintain, it doesn't require a bunch of symlinks like
sysv-rc nor does it require the magic of insserv, it is easy to change
the order in which services are started without time-consuming resolving
dependencies (eg linksys WRT54GS v1.1, asus wl500g boot pretty fast with
it).
BTW the "resolving dependencies" is done at installation/update time, not at
every boot.
