I think it is a very good thing to have config scripts checking for the existence of systemd. This means that developers still consider systemd a non standard component of a GNU/Linux system, like a library that you can have in your system or not. I will be more concerned when nobody checks for systemd any more, meaning that it is somehow implied to exist in your system, in some form...
