bedrocklinux-userland
This tracks development for the things such as scripts and (defaults for) config files for Bedrock Linux
It uses snapd (so in turn, systemd) so maybe that's what you missed. Up until the WSL update that brought systemd support I've been using distrod to have systemd in my WSL2 distros so it went all smoothly for me.
I was strictly talking about WSL2/containers in mind as I too have gotten sick of these "problems" for which there's never seem to be an end for. As in on Linux too I'd rather use Distrobox/nsbox/Bedrock Linux etc just dump the out of host distro kinda stuff into their respective containers, rather than risking to break and/or lose stuff because of the other people's clashing views on "what should be done/made how".
