You are arguing from a false premise: that the only way to install Debian is to first install systemd, then replace it with sysvinit.

can seem like the solution least biased in favor of any
particular init system.

It seems quite proper that there *is* a bias here: towards the system that
Debian recommends, that is judged to be the best choice for the majority of
users, and will receive the most testing.
