About upstream name of course. Source name matches upstream project name but
generated binary package is called "systemctl".

Thank you. I've already corrected that in the repository, thanks to lintian.

To insult?? That's crazy... Noted.

I'm not sure how to express it better. When you run application containers,
they don't have systemd so to start a service one have to re-implement/
reinvent maintainer provided .service file or init script.
Often it is not a trivial task and not only it may be difficult to get it
right but also it is a redundant job. Thanks to "systemctl" replacement it is
easy to start services exactly as intended (using the original .service file)
but without systemd.
I've been using this software for 2+ years and I find it immensely helpful.
