right, and arguably there is no burden in this case since the scripts
are provided by upstream.

I believe this episode profiles a dangerous situation for Devuan: if
Debian allows the vandalisation of what works on more packages beyond
redis-server, this will just create a huge amount of work for us.

I hope there are still grounds to be reasonable with Debian developers
in distinguishing between real needs for removing sysvinit scripts and
vandalisation. The relationship between Debian and Devuan should never
configure itself as an arms race.
