For a lot of hardware it may not matter. If it goes bang you boot with a
debugging kernel (one containing a vt driver)

If your user space goes castors up early then you are going to need input
facilities anyway (consider the fedora rescue mode in dracut for example) 

As far as compatibility goes we have the ttyprintk driver which just
provides a fake tty which types nothing and whose output goes to the
console.
