Actually, there are quite a few people working on providing
systemd-free packages, at least for Debian.

There are about a dozen packages that depend on systemd,
such as dbus, pulse-audio, avahi-daemon, udisk. Once these bottom-level
packages are freed, the whole software stack is liberated,
with the exception of the Gnome desktop environment.

You can see some of the dependencies (of Debian packages)
here.

Up to now, initscripts work with sysvinit. Also, there is an
excellent project to replace udev, designed to be portable
to *BSD unices.
