The quality of the maintainers of both tool also play an important role in
which tool to chose as standard, and we have a pretty good feedback from both
the initramfs-tools maintainer and upstream, while for yaird, the upstream
maintainer seems to be MIA since around late december, and the debian
maintainer seems to be unable to fix a bug or even looking at patches without
getting feedback from the upstream maintainer, which makes yaird unsuitable to
be the default.
