Changing to OpenRC + sysVinit

Hi, i just converted my arch to OpenRC successfully, for some reasons i need SysVinit since quiet boot argument don't work on openrc's default init. I referred to arch's wiki for sysVinit(AUR) but when i makepkg -si pacman gives me this error:

[qasim@qasim sysvinit]$ sudo pacman -U sysvinit-3.06-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

[sudo] password for qasim:

sysvinit: /usr/bin/init exists in filesystem (owned by base)

sysvinit: /usr/bin/shutdown exists in filesystem (owned by openrc)

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Kindly help me out on how can change openrc-init to SysVinit(init-openrc)
