I'm grateful for your help, but you didn't really answer any of my
questions, which are about some specifics of the systemd boot process
that I'd like to better understand.

It wasn't clear to me (and still is not) what initramfs environment your
questions were about.
Do you want answers based on systemd manpages OR on a systemd initramfs
as setup by mkinitcpio on archlinux ?
If the former I can't help further .
If the latter :
In folder /usr/lib/initcpio/install/ you'll find the systemd ,
sd-encrypt , sd-lvm2 , sd-shutdown and sd-vconsole hook scripts .
Look at their contents and notice they add specific services and targets.
Basic.target is NOT one of them, which suggests that it doesn't matter
in the initramfs stage of a systemd initramfs boot on archlinux.
Since absence / presence of hooks in mkinitcpio.conf changes what
happens in the initramfs stage,
you may want to use the lsinitcpio command to look directly in your
mkinitcpio initramfs image(s).
