The guideline for SysV initscripts[0] also specifies the commands
force-reload, status and usage. Why are these dropped?
status is a standard command, although scripts that do non-obvious status things
would need to implement them in other ways. (See 'network status', as an
example.)
force-reload is a standard command.
usage is not a standard command... since systemd enforces a standard set of
verbs, it's sort of obsolete.
