...yet. Correct tho.

No, not because of that. See below.

/run/<anything> is an implementation detail not worthy of being
mentioned. :)
The interesting part is
https://docs.voidlinux.org/config/services/#enabling-services
ln -s /etc/sv/<service> /var/service/
> How does runit start a service?
runsvdir will (within 5s) notice that /var/service/xinetd/ has appeared,
and then start "runsv xinetd".

runsv will notice that ./xinetd/supervise is a dangling symlink, and
create the directory (assuming /run/runit/ exists).

The only failure appears to be that you didn't enable the service before
expecting it to work.
Otherwise, what's the output of "sudo sv start xinetd"?
