I haven't replies to points 1,2,&4; either I agree, or I
don't see a reason why it is presently done that way. Presumebly the

3.3.4 Boot-time initialization
There used to be another directory, /etc/rc.boot, which contained scripts
which were run once per machine boot. This has been deprecated in
favour of links from /etc/rcS.d to files in /etc/init.d as described in
Introduction, Section 3.3.1. No packages may place files in
/etc/rc.boot.
