The problem (at least with 12.04) is that at least some of the scripts 
have been converted to upstart services and simply call the upstart 
tools to start/stop etc. Dropping upstart would require rewriting these 
scripts to start the services directly. Not impossible by any means but 
an unneeded incompatibility wrt. upstream Ubuntu.
