Have been testing Stretch with alternate inits -- sysvinit and runit to
be specific -- in Virtualbox on a Wheezy host while leaving systemd
files alone. Not even "pinning" them. Well decided to see what
removing them would do. I followed the "Variant" option instructions
on the Nosystemd site.

install of Stretch, I clicked UTC instead of Local for the hardware
clock time. Honestly, I thought the clock was set to UTC. Haven't
installed any other OS on this system since Wheezy 5 years ago. So, now
