Ok, so systemd removes the systemd-sysv-generator (it's called, something
like that), why this list cares? this is systemd internal stuff, there
is no direct
impact on sysv users.

Distro-wide Debian decision happens on
* debian-devel list, by consensus
* debian-ctte list, by advice/conflict resolution
* debian-vote, by voting a General Resolution (GR)

external list like systemd-devel can sure express wishes or "educated advises"
on what they think (hope) Debian would do, but a decision that widely impact
the distro such as "entirely drop sysv support" needs a discussion on at least
one of the above 3 Debian lists, and (spoiler) there was no such discussion.

What you are seeing now (some sysv scripts being dropped) is some maintainer
that decides to drop support for sysv (it can be done since, according
to the 2019 GR,
support to alternative init system is at discretion of each maintainer).
