Can't them be stolen from other distros running systemd?

I am unable to find exact advantage of changing init system without
rebooting :/, what is the advantage of booting with an init.d and
shutting down with a different one?

Are udev and systemd-udev-part really equivalent? I mean, since they are
maintained by different people downstream, I am not sure if there would
be differences in how udev from udev ebuild and udev from systemd ebuild
will behave.
