Not really. systemd doesn't stop providing a single place to define a
consistent policy because a set of users do not use it.

That's not the point I thought was good: the point is, in Debian,
systemd is optional. As an Operating System, consistency is a good
thing, and so if we have a consistent policy for anything, it would be
nice if that was not dependent on optional software. On the other hand, nobody has put together an alternative to achieve the same thing, and we
are all volunteers.

A bug report against the release notes with a patch is always worth a
try.

The relevant release notes would be the ones for the release that
introduced systemd which has been and gone.
