If systemd is supposed to do everything sysv can, only in a cleaner way,
could not systemd generate sysv scripts from its own definitions? That
way a packager that systemd-ized its package would only have to worry
about the systemd declaration, and something perfectly in sync would be
generated for people using other init systems.

I don't think it is reasonable to expect people to maintain multiple
init declarations manually. They will drift, have different bugs, etc.
If there is a need for the sysv declarations to stay a long time, they
need to be either the only ones, or be generated from the new-style
ones.
