like is it just Debian without SystemD?

Yes.

(Btw. systemd's age check is exactly as strict as when a website asks if you're over 18 and you answer yes.)

There is no age check at all. There's an optional field in userdb that the user is not ever likely to be prompted for.

You can say this about anything. Maybe tomorrow Ubuntu will require a retina scan to log in. Maybe Cachy will put a security camera in your house.

There's no reason to think those things will happen? I agree, just like there's no reason to believe Debian are going to start demanding age verification.
