If Debian refuses systemd, there is no point for me to install it.
If they adapt Upstart, they have to sign Canonical's CLA, if they want to change it even bit. This means any Debian works on that matter go into whatever license Canonical sees fit. Half the worry - they break a lot of things in ecosystem and will generate a lot of bugs, which they can't upstream to Linux, udev, systemd etc.
Finally, I don't see any reason for BSD and Hurd kernel support, that they downgrade and deviate from much more advanced technologies.
They can create special packages in case these kernels are in use and work it this way. I assume when and if BSD work out the launchd port, then they also will deviate from SystemV, and especially from Upstart.
Time to show who Debian is really for. For following and bending over, or for keeping in touch with most modern DFSG-compatible kernel that powered them up till now.
