Because the initramfs is just replacing what / used to be, and it's
even less well handled than "stuff not in /usr" is just now. All using
an initramfs does is move the dependencies problem from somewhere where
we have a solution that used to work and that still mostly works to
somewhere where we don't have anything at all.
