Systemd isn't forced on you. LOTS of other things are, starting with
the choice of .deb as package format.

Please stop being obtuse, You know very well what I meant. Devuan has
to make some decision for you, but you accept them by accepting
Devuan. What Devuan doesn't force on you are things like, what GUI to
use (or force you to use one), sudo, su or anything like this. More
importantly, it doesn't force systemd on you.

In the post I replied to, Dave was trying to force everybody to NOT use
su, this, in my opinion, is a denial of freedom of choice.

The bottle of wine isn't quite finished yet, but I am not trying to force anyone to stop using 'su'.

It IS a really bad idea though, rummage the interweb, somewhere in there is a really good write up on why su is bad and sudo is good.

And doas is even better.
