Yes, FSVO "clean". You'll have installed systemd-sysv at some point, but
the in the late command you will purge it and install sysvinit-core
instead.
The reason you can't do this at debootstrap time and have to use the
late command is because of #668001, which is due to the lack of proper
dependency handling when given --exclude and --include options in cases
which involve alternative dependencies.
