" Nevertheless, the decision is for systemd, and given that Ubuntu is quite centrally a member of the Debian family, that’s a decision we support."
Seems like they want to keep as close to Debian as they can... Well as 'close' as ubuntu can be.

But I think it isn't always right to say that since something like Debian is changing to one way that it's derivatives have to. They can just "fork" at the point they wish and go their own way using what ever init system they want.

Debian is only moving their DEFAULT init system to systemd. They have
support included for OpenRC, SysVInit, Upstart, etc. The wide breadth
of support is likely a contributor to why their Spin-offs have
spin-offs, as opposed to everyone else as old as Debian. (Checks the
Chart)... yeah, Slackware. That's it.
