As has been stated many times here - A GR was tried but not enough
seconds to carry on.
So, lets drop this shall we, please?! I'm so tired of people on here
going on ad infintum about this subject. Debian is a do-ocracy. Not
enough of the doers care enough to overturn the TC recommendation.
So, your choices are to fork/create your own init system/distro, go to
another distro that meets your needs, or accept the status quo.
I run a desktop as well as servers on systemd - No problems whatsoever.
Perhaps spend your energy reading up and learning how systemd works, or
not. Whatever you decide to do, please stop ranting/complaining/talking
about how you dislike systemd.
Not to you strictly but everyone else in the same camp. Thank-you!
