that is your personal opinon and shown to be wrong.

No and again no. run-init doesn't move mount things, you could rename switch_root to run-init, then it would be correct. You confuse things, switch_root is the new command name by util-linux and it does a certain number of things. It doesn't matter, if you personally agree with them or not.
