All of those devices are linux, and all have init systems. Currently, there are two core systems they use: bsd-like init.rc systems (and busybox variants), and sysv.
Similarly with servers: essentially all the web servers and application servers in the world are linux, and they also don't need the sort of windows-style 'architecture' that systemd brings.
In fact, I would venture to say that boot speed isn't even in the top 50 concerns of a desktop linux user.
So it's not just the tail wagging the dog; it's a nonexistent, badly drawn picture of a tail wagging several billion dogs.
