I believe it partially my fault in this mis-representation.
Yes, problem exists (and it is severe), but not as severe like 1033 out
of 1300 daemons missing init.d scripts.
This lintian check have number of false-positives, like `foo@.service`
files triggering complains about missing `/etc/init.d/foo@` scripts, and
sometimes names plainly do not match (e.g bin:ifupdown).
