Because #OpenRC, like #SysVinit and #Xorg are dead ends.
The only reason why anyone ever made #SystemD and #Wayland is because after literal decades of pain and suffering some folks said: "This is junk!" and invested the monumental effort of replacing already neglected Software that barely functioned with something that does!
Were the predecessors of systemd and wayland not #unmaintainable and bordering on #Abandonware before, neither of those would've seen adoption!
But long-term the best solution wins, and SysVinit as well as X11 were just pulled from #Unix-esque systems that predated #Linux, because back then noone had the time.nor resources nor patience do do something better.
Otherwise we would've gotten systemd and wayland way earlier...

Hmmh, depends. If you want your project to be portable to other system platforms like e.g BSD/Unix, relying on linux-only/centric solutions could be problematic.
