I assumed it was one of the facilities made feasible by systemd?
If it has nothing to do with systemd, what exactly is its advantage?

I am not how what that question means.  firewalld has nothing to do with systemd and vice versa other than the fact that any service in Fedora is started using systemd.   Also both systemd and firewalld comes with extensive documentation

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FirewallD

To quote

"The former firewall model with system-config-firewall/lokkit was static and every change required a complete firewall restart. This included also to unload the firewall netfilter kernel modules and to load the modules that are needed for the new configuration. The unload of the modules was breaking stateful firewalling and established connections.

The firewall daemon on the other hand manages the firewall dynamically and applies changes without restarting the whole firewall. Therefore there is no need to reload all firewall kernel modules. "
