Being better than SysV init is not something systemd has a monopoly on...

Portability off Linux isn't a small concern for the Debian project as far as I know

Red Hat related distros are very good distros based on systemd and are still available, it isn't necessary for Debian also to adopt systemd in order for people to use and enjoy it

Debian has an active port to using the FreeBSD kernel, as well as a port to Hurd. So yes, portability off the Linux kernel is a concern to Debian.
