I thought the suggestion I'd made as the last comment on that bug
(roughly, consider a migration to orphan-sysvinit-scripts after the
bookworm release) was not entirely unreasonable? It's not entirely
straightforward (and I'm not sure udev rules are best handled thus), but
still probably better co-ordinated via that bug report rather than this
-devel thread...
