This sounds very interesting and I am willing to research it, if you can help
with some promised references to simplify the search, it would be appreciated.
But why do you leave this puzzling remark about desperate distros. What do you
mean by desperate distros. That are struggling to get their init system to
work? In my experience they all seem to be working fine, and to newbs coming
from systemd distros it is mind-boggling how simple they are.

Not necessarily a minimalist alternative but nowhere as insane as today's
firefox, Palemoon has found a new advocate.
