correct init

new postulation:

process #1 should not rely on conditions that it has not previously
ascertained to be true (eg by setting something up by itself, so it
exists and is safe to use/rely on it).

sounds self-evident ? sadly many inits do not comply with that
postulation, a well known example that comes immediatly to mind
is the poorly designed/though out SysV init itself.

the poor crap relies on the initctl fifo for ipc, how dumb can one be ?
