Remember that systemd includes a high degree of backward compatibility 
with old sysvinit scripts. That would be why you see the exact same things 
showing up in both init.d and systemd. This way, “systemctl start/stop” is 
able to start/stop sysvinit scripts, without you having to know the 
difference.
