If it looks like debian and out of date unsupported
centos/redhat, but is actually completely different, is it really
helpful to make it look like something it's not?

The life of the "service <xxxx> start|stop|status" really wasn't
very long. It didn't offer command completion without shell
programming, and was simply a rewording of /etc/init.d/xxxx
start|stop|status. Redhat based distros moved to systemd, ubuntu
went to upstart, and that changed things _again_ Why should
openwrt _add_ a duplicate path that needs to be documented and
adds little to no value?

Sincerley,
