Are there any comparisons of init systems that focus daily use metrics? Stuff like what writing scripts looks like and boot times and logging capabilities? (And any other use cases that are common)

One init system is the new standard, widely adopted by all serious distros, installed and configured by default. It is opinionated, spits in the eye of most experienced IT admins but is the only real alternative for who needs to earn a living with linux. It is well supported and understood… The others are well established standards that did not survive the test of time and are slowly dying out, kept around by nostalgic hobbyists that will catch any mention of systemd as an excuse to profess their hate for poettering, binary logs or some udev or logind babbling.
Tldr: systemd if you don’t want to bother, any other if you want to play
