    It is a lovely idea to offer that as an option. I would keep customizing my own distro as it would reduce the installation variables.

    User likes antix because his old laptop works well. Wants to keep using it. Downloads the configuration. Antix is without systemd. Systemd service files get downloaded anyway (they do no harm). User has problems, googles the problem, might be systemd related, starts editing files that no one uses.

    But hey, the package manager in post config could detect which init system is in use, easy peasy right? enter mx linux which has separate boot options for init.d and systemd.

    In a nutshell, hell.

    Interesting, sadly this leads to it showing up as being systemd based on Distrowatch...
