In the case of CentOS-7 .. you don't need to create a whole new

Special Interest Group to get access to CentOS Project controlled
resources to build packages (and get them rolled into our mirrors,
etc.) to use something other than systemd.
Excellent idea. I'll gladly sign any such petition:-)
but will you contribute to building the non-systemd packages, and
working out how to retrofit old sysV init back into everything via
patches, etc ? every RPM that interacts with systemd will need to be
'fixed' to do it the old way, with init.d scripts. repositories like
postgres, EPEL, etc won't work, either, as their C7 packaged daemons are
all configured to use systemd.
