I actually think the amendment text does provide a different emphasis
than the TC ruling. The TC ruling expects that maintainers will
generally support multiple init systems. The amendment text focuses on
user experience. I might well decide (I happen to believe) that systemd
provides a better user experience for enough users that if I were
judging based only on user experience I would drop sysvinit support.
so, I think the amendment text shifts the emphasis of our decisions and
as such overrules the TC.
