that is your personal opinon and shown to be wrong. (:

well in the cases where it is needed and as busybox doesn't do it is a
bug.

No, you clearly again miss the point.

No and again no.
run-init doesn't move mount things, you could rename switch_root
to run-init, then it would be correct.
You confuse things, switch_root is the new command name by util-linux
and it does a certain number of things. It doesn't matter, if
you personally agree with them or not.
Ah and please stop evading into the init script.
thank you.
