the larger picture is that every project writes it's code and choses to rely on code of other projects as dependency - that's it - not more and not less
if there would be a big need and a large base of people to keep and maintain systemd free distributions it just would happen and if we here *anything* about "devuan" in two years is more than questionable
what you are missing at "your big picture" is based on mis-information or how did you come to the conclusion in this thread that systemd is not for servers (frankly tell that my servers) while a ton of options making sense more on servers than on workstations or that it is not for embedded devices while http://0pointer.net/blog/projects/stateless.html is especially useful for exactly that type of setups
