Debian is moving to systemd now. Unstable and testing are getting dependencies on systemd from various packages.

yes. Previously the dependencies were only on systemd, which can be installed alongside systemvinit without being used. It's now calling for systemd-sysv, which is the operative package that changes /sbin/init. Just avoiding confusion for those watching...

Now is a good time to transition, it's been working well for me for over a year.

Excellent.
