Probably this whole list, there is lots of code shared with Windows 7, but who really knows? Nobody is checking against Vista anymore.

Maybe some Lua, as a treat?

I love how this comment suggests every fucking alternative doesn’t or wouldn’t.

How did you get that from their sentence, what the fuck?

I just get that included. Like the Norwegian guy, but in Switzerland from Init7

I’ve never seen any substantial evidence of a distro with outdated packages really being any more reliable than a rolling release.

I think the fundamental issue here is that you conflate the concepts of reliablility and stability. Those are not the same. Stability in distros is a question of how much they restrict change during support cycles in order to not be a moving target for developers and system integrators. Fundamentally a rolling release can’t be stable. It can absolutely be reliable to use, but you wouldn’t use it as a basis for an embedded system you’re trying to develop.

Arch is pretty stable

No, it’s a rolling release. Stable means that behaviours don’t change during a support cycle of a major version. A rolling release can’t be stable since it doesn’t have major versions.

But system32 contains the NT kernel as well, so that’s worse. Uninstalling your init system on a Linux distro still leaves you with single user mode. You could probably reinstall an init system from there.

He uninstalled systemd, now his computer is not doing systemd things anymore by his retelling. Seems like it worked fine. Yet he asks for a solution of a problem. Maybe he needs to state the problem.
