Before you copied some random file you edited and put it in init.d and it worked.

Before you copied some random file you edited and put it in init.d and it appeared to be working but then failed in random ways the first time you restarted, the first time you rebooted, the first time you restarted it via sudo instead of directly as root since some environment variable differed,...

So really it only appeared to be working in my experience because you had no real way to check.

I mean it should be obviously clear that copying random files isn't sth. You should do anyways

Well, in this context what we are talking about is some random init script from some other service because nobody wants to write all that crap from scratch every time.
