Don't underestimate the power of habits, versus the 'flicker' inconvenience.

It is a long habit, it is written in all How-To's, many also have panic 
scripts that do 'chvt 1' when something goes wrong[1]

I'd say, a bug in plymouth/systemd/whatever needs to be fixed as a bug, not 
trigger such a change of habits and/or standardisation.

Please don't break our text consoles. We may be spending 99.9% of our time in 
X, but this 0,1% that we need the ttys is priceless!
