Ctrl + Alt + Del setup in s6-linux-init?

Hello,

s6-linux-init-maker creates an .s6-svscan/SIGINT script that reboots
the computer, and Adélie Linux' packaging of s6-linux-init-1.0.2.0
appears to contain an /etc/sysctl.d/ctrlaltdel.conf file that says
"kernel.ctrl-alt-del = 0". So one might think that having the kernel
send a SIGINT signal to process 1 when Ctrl + Alt + Del is pressed is
the expected default setup. Given that this is a Linux-specific
package, and that the stage1 init is now a C program, was there a
reson for not setting this up directly with a 'reboot(RB_DISABLE_CAD)'
call, like sysvinit, runit and others do?

Thanks,
G.
